In this remarkable collection of essays, Stephen Harrigan explores, with an unfailing depth of feeling, the human longing to feel at home in the world of nature. In vivid and convincing prose, he evokes the landscape of his home territory, Texas, and his own reactions, sometimes droll, sometimes haunted, to the extraordinary power of place that Texas projects. A Natural State was originally published in hardcover in 1988 by Texas Monthly Press. | A Natural State by Stephen Harrigan, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
