Terry Tempest Williams is one of those extraordinary writers who reminds me that heart and mind are inextricable. Her latest book, The Hour of Land: A Personal Topography of America’s National Parks is a journey through twelve national parks, in which we encounter a history of our nation in microcosm. In the episode we talk to her and her husband Brooke Williams, author of, Open Midnight: Where Ancestors and Wilderness Meet, a book that traces another kind of journey on the Western landscape, a meeting of his own history and ancestors.
