About This Novel
"Sand Country Almanack" is a collection of essays by Aldo Leopold, the "father of ecological ethics". Among them, "The Return of the Wild Geese" and "Thinking Like a Mountain" were selected into middle school Chinese textbooks. The book is divided into four series. The first series is divided into 12 chapters according to the 12 months of the year, collectively called "Sand Country Almanac". The second series is called "Sketches from Four Directions" and takes Wisconsin and other places as the writing object. The third series is "Rural Reveries", and the fourth series is the conclusion. This book is the crystallization of the author's lifelong observation, experience and thinking. The book not only expresses the recollection of the harmonious life on the farm in Wisconsin's sandy countryside, but also records the lessons and pain experienced in pursuing a scientific ecological view. It also discusses the relationship between man and nature, man and land, and attempts to reawaken people's love and respect for nature. Translator Cao Minglun's translation highlights the charm of nature and beauty.
