Gloryland

I have just finished the best book I have read in years. Gloryland by Shelton Johnson. Almost didn't buy it, he's a ranger in Yosemite and I thought it would be dry and preachy. Wrong!



This guy can write - do yourself a favor - run do not walk to your nearest bookstore, open it up and start reading. I promise you won't be able to put it down.

Pain, love and loss, redemption. Connections that transcend time and place. Opens the lines between this world and the ones behind and ahead. Love, indifference, beauty. The truths that are found only in silence and solitude. And in connectedness. And what this man can do with the English language is wrenching, uplifting, astonishing. Get This Book!!
