A Sand County Almanac

I love this book, it is beautifully written and wonderfully put together. The only problem I had, is that this version is only half of the actual book - it is literally only Part I of the four parts that are in the paperback edition.

Part I of the book was good but where is Part II and Part III. It would have been better if you got the whole book.

I disagree with the previous reviewers. It's not that important that you have the whole book. Leopold wrote these as individual essays so it's not like you are missing whole chapters from a book. Stewart Udall was a brilliant choice for a reader, his voice matches my vision of Leopold and it is both lyrical and strong.

It's difficult for me to tell whether the average person would enjoy this book since, like Leopold, I am an ecology professor. It's a book I have been meaning to read for ages for professional reasons, and a long car journey provided an opportunity to "get it out of the way". Although I think much of the work is overly sentimental, I was nevertheless drawn to it and captivated by it. These are lovely and heartfelt sentiments. The work is a classic foundation of modern environmentalism and conseravtion ethics and is probably required reading for anyone interested in the field.

I'm sure the book is worth reading. However, I found the narration made the content so uninteresting that I was unable to finish the recording.

Aldo Leopold is brilliant and inspiring.

The dog because he is written so very dogishly.

Distracting, strange, and monotonous.

There are many films inspired by this book, but mine would be called The Seasons of Convservation, (not really).

This book is a must read for anyone and everyone interested in Biology, the outdoors, or conservation.

Humbling and inspiring. This should be a must read in the high schools.
