"Sand Country Almanack" is the crystallization of Leopold's lifelong observations, experiences and thinking, the founder of the new environmental theory in the United States and the father of ecological ethics. It is a book describing the relationship between land and people, and is known as the pioneering work of land ethics.

"Walden" records Thoreau's simple life, in-depth thinking, and self-reinvention during his two years of seclusion on the shores of Walden Pond. The writing is quiet, tranquil, and thought-provoking. He cultivated land next to his cabin and was self-sufficient. He talked with the lake, forest and birds, went boating on the lake, fished on the shore, and wrote down his observations and thoughts in the cabin at night. He proudly declared: "Everyone is the king of his own kingdom. Compared with this kingdom, the Tsarist Empire is just a humble country, like a small snowball in the ice and snow." In Rousseau's view, most of the luxuries and most of the so-called comforts that people pursue are not only unnecessary, but also hinder human progress.

"A Summer's Walk Over the Mountains" is a classic collection of essays that records Muir's expedition trip to the Sierra Nevada Mountains in the summer of 1869. At that time, Muir was invited by a friend to go to the Sierra Nevada Mountains in Yosemite Valley to herd sheep and investigate. This book was originally published in 1911. In the book, Muir recorded in diary form what he saw and heard in the mountains, including the magnificent natural landscapes, rich species of flora and fauna, and the deep connection with nature. Muir believed that nature was not only a resource, but also the sustenance of the human spirit. His writing integrated scientific observation and poetic expression, creating a new tradition of nature literature. In the book, Muir not only described the beauty of nature, but also expressed his thoughts on the relationship between humans and nature. He criticized mankind's destruction of nature and called on people to respect and protect nature. This book is not only a classic of nature literature, but also an important document of the modern environmental movement.

She is the daughter of the forest and grew up in the forest. From a female lumberjack to a young female scientist who proposed new ideas, she was repeatedly squeezed and suppressed in a field where women were severely discriminated against, but she still moved forward tenaciously with her passion and became widely recognized as the "Mother of the Tree Network" and a well-deserved celebrity in the field of forest ecology. She had lost a loved one, had her family broken up, and suffered from a serious illness. It was her beloved forest and family and friends that gave her strength, healed her wounds, and helped her regain her vitality. In this book, Simard tells the story of his unique life journey. Her life parallels research exploring the forest's hidden underground network. Trees and fungi in the forest are mutually beneficial and build an intricate "tree-dimensional network", just like our neural network or the Internet, through which nutrients and water can be transferred; trees use this to exchange information and help each other. The center of the tree network is the mother tree, which uses powerful power to connect and maintain all the surrounding offspring. In a dynamic and self-healing forest, competition is not a permanent theme. The cooperative relationship between trees and between trees and fungi is far more important than we imagine. Only by being altruistic can we benefit ourselves. The same is true for human beings. The relationships between us and our relatives, lovers, and friends are intertwined into an intricate network of social relationships, which provide us with valuable support and help and are the source of our constant review and energy absorption as we move forward. This book will forever change the way we see trees and give us the power to heal.

This book is Thoreau's last masterpiece. It is a set of essays about wild fruits that he devoted all his efforts in the last ten years of his life to write one after another. Different from the philosopher in "Walden", in this book, Thoreau is like an amiable and knowledgeable playmate and botany teacher. He is full of sacred love for nature. Using his careful investigation of the wild itinerary as a clue, he describes in detail the distribution of various wild fruits in North America, their flowering periods, specific fruiting periods and their respective shapes and other life arts, as well as the natural relationship between various local insects, birds and beasts (such as various birds, black bears, squirrels, cattle and sheep, etc.). It makes people feel the harmony, loveliness and preciousness of all the vegetation around them, as well as the importance of interdependence and mutual support among all types of life.

"The Waking Forest" was first published in 1871. It is Burroughs's first collection of nature essays and is by far Burroughs's most popular and beloved work. This is a book about birds, or more appropriately, an invitation to enter the field of ornithology. If it can awaken and stimulate readers' interest in this branch of natural history, it will achieve part of the author's writing intention. We followed Burroughs to the valley and listened to the concert of forest birds. We walked into the forest and observed the colorful lives of different birds. When Burroughs wrote this book, he relied less on rigorous science than on his love of birds and what he already knew. His harvest comes more from the forest than from the study; what he gives readers is a careful and detailed record of field observations and experiences, and every word is true. Most of the scenery he writes are familiar and accessible to people, those in people's own farms and courtyards: woods, fields, birds and animals. As a result, he has won many readers and has set a sales record of 1.5 Million. He is also recognized as the most popular writer of that era. Many people back then, including President Theodore Roosevelt, grew up reading Burroughs's books and followed in his footsteps.
