{"product_id":"9781603581684","title":"Pinhook: Finding Wholeness in a Fragmented Land","description":"\u003cp\u003eJanisse Ray, award-winning author of \u003cem\u003eEcology of a Cracker Childhood\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eWild Card Quilt\u003c\/em\u003e, writes an evocative paean to wildness and wilderness restoration with an extraordinary journey into southern Georgia's Pinhook Swamp.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003ePinhook Swamp acts as a vital watershed and wildlife corridor, a link between the great southern wildernesses of Okefenokee Swamp and Osceola National Forest. Together Okefenokee, Osceola, and Pinhook form one of the largest expanse of protected wild land east of the Mississippi River. This is one of America's last truly wild places, and \u003cem\u003ePinhook\u003c\/em\u003e takes us into its heart.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eRay comes to know Pinhook intimately as she joins the fight to protect it, spending the night in the swamp, tasting honey made from its flowers, tracking wildlife, and talking to others about their relationship with the swamp. Ray sees Pinhook through the eyes of the people who live there--naturalists, beekeepers, homesteaders, hunters, and locals at the country store. In lyrical, down-home prose, she draws together the swamp's need for restoration and the human desire for wholeness and wildness in our own lives and landscapes.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chelsea Green Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47133863248112,"sku":"9781603581684","price":12.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781603581684_p0.jpg?v=1763825743","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781603581684","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
