“Like a great jazz musician who knows that as much can be conveyed in the silence between the notes as in the complexity of the notes played, Mark Seth Lender offers simple themes expressed in deceptively simple prose. Lender gives us insight in brevity and beauty in unfussy, clean prose. Thoreau wrote that “simple truth and sincerity are rare” but in Salt Marsh Diary simple truth and sincerity have found a home.”

– Jeffrey S. Cramer, The Thoreau Institute at Walden Woods, editor of Walden: A Fully Annotated Edition and The Quotable Thoreau.

Mark Seth Lender’s camera is his notebook. Now you can both read his nature essays (many of which have aired on Living on Earth) and own one of the photographs that inspire his work.

Thanks for your help!
