Negative Positive
Title: First installment of a great series
Review: Excellent naturalist and travel writer Edwin Way Teale documents his travels with Nellie, his beloved wife as they explore the Eastern United States starting in Florida's Everglades in 1949. One touching aspect of this and the other three books in this series is that it was inspired by the death of their son, who was killed in World War II. Personal vignettes mixed with observations of the environment and the creatures that inhabit it. Teale focuses his attention variously on flora, fauna and people as he and Nellie explore many different places along the way.
