Summary Michael Branch built his home on a remote hilltop in the Great Basin Desert of northwestern Nevada, a wild and extreme landscape where he lives with his wife and two curious little girls. Part memoir, part homage to an environment all-to-often brushed aside as inhospitable, this book offers an intergenerational approach to nature, family, and the forgotten language of wildness.
