From airport birdwatching and getting lost in an urban forest, to rethinking society's ill-fated war on wildlife and our struggle to reshape the American landscape, Red Dirt Country invites readers to savor the joys of our natural surroundings. Written by Oklahoma native John Gifford, this timely book is a literary meditation on the Oklahoma landscape and the rich biodiversity of the southern Great Plains. Inspired by such naturalists as Gilbert White, Susan Fenimore Cooper, and Henry David Thoreau, the essays in Red Dirt Country reveal the rewards of close observation and the author's deep respect for the natural world. With his keen eye for detail, Gifford chronicles life along a suburban creek, noting from month to month the habits of the area's birds, mammals, and trees. With particular attention, he captures the grace and majesty of that sleek raptor, the Mississippi Kite, during its yearly nesting cycle in the southern plains. Even as Gifford extols the surprising beauty of Oklahoma, he ponders the larger environmental concerns and challenges that we face today, such as the cataclysmic wildfires and droughts threatening the American West, and modern society's impact on vital lands and wildlife. A compelling work of creative nonfiction, Red Dirt Country harkens back to America's most beloved masterpieces of nature writing. At the same time, Gifford provides a distinctly contemporary reflection on today's suburban wilderness, inspiring us all to develop a deeper connection to our natural surroundings.

The book contents are good. Format? Not so great/
Format: Hardcover
The text of this volume is exhaustive, but the photos are substandard. These need some enhancement and a lot of enlargement. Due to its its extreme weight, the book should have been issued in at least two volume, possibly three,. The third volume could profitably be devoted to enhanced photos: those used seem to adhere to the principal that a photo is worth <100 words.

Smells great, and absorbs well! Love it!
Scent: Majestic Oud, Size: 1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This product is great. I use it on my goatee. It smells great and makes my beard and mustache nice and soft. I can't stop touching it. I wasn't sure what particular fragrance to pick, so I randomly chose Majestic Oud. Sometimes the ladies don't like kissing a guy with facial hair, but they do when it smells good, and it's soft! It absorbs well; you just have to work it in. Best when the beard is softened after you wash your face, or after a shower. Wish this product came in a larger size, but a little goes a long way, after all, it's oil. If you want a touchable, tamed beard, I think this is a good one. It's all natural, good quality, and not at all sticky or gooey. It's not messy; it absorbs into the beard quickly. You still have to wash your hands, or just rub it into your hands.
