{"product_id":"the-forest-year-ethan-tapper-9781643266510","title":"The Forest Year: Finding Hope in a World Worth Saving","description":"Tapper's groundbreaking first book \u003ci\u003eHow to Love a Forest\u003c\/i\u003e offered a pragmatic and hopeful vision for our relationship with forests and other ecosystems. His new book, \u003ci\u003eThe Forest Year\u003c\/i\u003e, lives inside the practice of staying, caretaking, and paying attention. Following the author's forest through a year of life, the book explores flowers, birds, forest ecology, biodiversity, while also reflecting on stewardship, community, and what it means to be rooted in place. \u003ci\u003eThe Forest Year\u003c\/i\u003e is a meditative and lyrical ode to the land, weaving complex scientific and ecological concepts with beautiful narrative prose, making nuanced ideas easy to understand and deeply resonant. Both place-based and practice-driven, Tapper writes not as an armchair philosopher or an academic, but as a working forester and ecologist stewarding real forests in real time, blending emotional insight with ecological rigor. A moving account of what it means to persist in the face of change and to love a place through work, compromise, sacrifice, and humility, this book will inspire readers to think deeply about where they live and who they are.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ethan Tapper\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1643266519\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781643266510\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Timber Press (OR)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/06\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.75w x 0.81d","brand":"Ethan Tapper","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48483394224383,"sku":"9781643266510","price":28.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_74a5ead4-a4e2-4342-83f4-64be68282229.jpg?v=1778038537","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-forest-year-ethan-tapper-9781643266510","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
