Edward Hoagland was legally blind for three years until surgery miraculously changed his life. In this, his first original book published in more than six years, Hoagland serves up a literary banquet celebrating his renewed vision. With the penetrating and entrancing prose that has made him one of the most celebrated nature writers working today, he guides us along the full spectrum of a fascinating life -- the painful stuttering of prep-school days to the vagabond existence of his circus months when he trained tigers, from enthralling travels to Antarctica to settling into the luscious surroundings of his home in Vermont. Indeed, "Tigers and Ice" serves full notice of this one-of-a-kind writer at his powerful best, exploring his own life and the natural world with trademark honesty and grace.
