Land of Little Rain

Originally published in 1903, this classic nature book by Mary Austin evokes the mysticism and spirituality of the American Southwest. Vibrant imagery of the landscape between the high Sierras and the Mojave Desert is punctuated with descriptions of the fauna, flora and people that coexist peacefully with the earth.

Robert Hass is currently a chancellor of the Academy of American Poets. He teaches at the University of California at Berkeley.
