The Cabin Down the Glen
by Odell Shepard, edited by Rick Sowash.

The Cabin Down the GlenA long lost manuscript by the author of "Harvest of a Quiet Eye," "The Lore of the Unicorn," "Pedlar's Progress: The Life of Bronson Alcott" and others.

A tapestry of writings recounting Shepard’s inward and outward experiences while dwelling in a cabin on a 25-acre plot in western Connecticut during the Great Depression. Shepard fulfills his destiny by connecting with Nature, in his time and place, through the practice of solitude, husbandry and paternity. At the same time, it is a simple book about ancient, simple things -- bird song, a starry night, trees, spring water and the briefness of existence.

“It’s an important and unique book and it’s lovely to see it in print in your handsome edition.”
Nick Lyons - Author-editor-publisher
