“The Wild Within” is a photo collection highlighting the wetlands — with a special emphasis on the animals of the Washington Park Arboretum. It is a real page-turner, but pages that you’ll return to and savor frequently with an even deeper appreciation of the value of our Arboretum.
Essays provide occasional breaks in the photographs and they are well worth reading. Notables Dale Chihully, Dan Evans, Peter Steinbrueck, William Ruckelshaus and others shed their public faces to give very personal accounts of the importance of the Arboretum.
