Book Description
Howard Mansfield explores the loss of cultural memory, asking: What is the past? How do we construct that past? Is it possible to preserve the past as a vital force for the future? He writes eloquently on the land and time, on how to be a tourist of the near-at-hand, and on the forces that try to topple us. From the author of In the Memory House, which The New York Times Book Review called wise and beautiful, and The Same Ax, Twice comes The Bones of The Earth, a stunning call for reinventing our view of the future.
