"A shrewd meditation on home, family, nature, and the author's native South." - Kirkus Reviews

 

 

"The Home Place is a work of undeniable poetry. Like John Muir, Aldo Leopold, Rachel Carson, and other trailblazers before him, Lanham writes rapturously of the natural world, of its majesty, sublimity, and wonder. He writes of being “colored” by the fields and the soil and the water, both in spirit and manifested in the beautiful hue of his skin."

-Michelle Schingler, Associate Editor, Foreword Reviews
