Coming To Treeline: Adirondack Poems
These extraordinary poems celebrate the High Peaks Region of the Adirondacks in upstate New York. Cranston vividly connects the reader to the mountains, lakes, streams and people who have been part of her life for over fifty years.
Bill McKibben, environmentalist and author of Wandering Home: A Long Walk Through America's Most Hopeful Region, Vermont's Champlain Valley and New York's Adirondacks says, "I have been in most of the places where these poems are set. Pamela Cranston has captured them with grace and invested them with another skin of meaning and of beauty."
Colleen Marie Ryor, editor of The Adirondack Review says, “Written with craft and a mature sensitivity to language, Pamela Cranston's poetry sings with peace, hope, and a wisdom that comes from her many experiences with the beauty of the natural world."
