{"product_id":"from-where-we-stand-deborah-tall-9780815610724","title":"From Where We Stand: Recovering a Sense of Place","description":"Why does a particular landscape move us? What is it that attaches us to a particular place? Tall's From Where We Stand is an eloquent exploration of the connections we have with places--and the loss to us if there are no such connections. A typically rootless child of several American suburbs, Tall set out to make a true home for herself in the landscape that circumstance had brought her--the Finger Lakes region of upstate New York. In a mosaic of personal anecdotes, historical sketches, and lyrical meditations, she interweaves her own story with the story of this place and its people--from the Seneca Nation of the Iroquois, to European settlers, to the many utopians who sensed and were inspired by a spiritual resonance here. This edition includes an introduction by William Kittredge and a foreword by Stephen Kuusisto, both highlighting the book's significance and Tall's exquisite skill in tracing the relationship between homelands and storytelling.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Deborah Tall\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0815610726\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780815610724\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Syracuse University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/05\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 248\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.73lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.09h x 5.97w x 0.52d","brand":"Deborah Tall","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43988292436223,"sku":"9780815610724","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9bb93276-a434-496e-a38f-7f0ade26330f.jpg?v=1683293711","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/from-where-we-stand-deborah-tall-9780815610724","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
