Table of ContentsReviewsWhat wilderness lover, asks John Tallmadge, would ever dream of settling deep in the Rust Belt astride polluted rivers? The Cincinnati Arch holds the provocative answer to Tallmadge's question, which was prompted by his unplanned relocation from rural Minnesota to urban Ohio. Tallmadge tells of dismaying early encounters with the city's seeming barrenness, his growing awareness of its vitality and abundance, and finally his new vision of all nature, from the vacant lots of his neighborhood to our great New England forests and Western deserts.
