About the book
First published in 1949, Aldo Leopold's A Sand County Almanac remains an enduring and beloved work of literature. It is also a foundational text in wildlife ecology, envisioning and embracing an ethic that treats land not as a commodity but as a community of soil, water, plants, and animals. Leopold's book has inspired, delighted, and sustained countless readers around the world.
