Edge of the Earth, Corner of the Sky
By Art Wolfe
Art Wolfe brilliantly expresses the kinship of all living things with each awe-inspiring image in Edge of the Earth, Corner of the Sky (Wildlands Press, $75). Taken over nine years in the remote reaches of seven continents, these photographs transport readers to some of the planet's most spectacular mountain, ocean, forest, desert and polar landscapes. Accompanying essays by writer Art Davidson give a voice and a history to scenes that appear to have never witnessed a footprint. His thoughtful words remind readers that the souls and livelihoods of the planet's human inhabitants are—for better or worse—forever entwined with these majestic, yet fragile, environments.
