`You now have a chance to catch up with a bumper edition of Mcphee. Annals of the Former World is a reprint of four short books, from the first and best-known journey Basin and Range (Nevada, 1991), through In Suspect Terrain (Appalachians, 1983), across Rising from the Plains (Wyoming, 1986) and now joined by Crossing the Craton (Nebraska and Colorado). For anyone not familiar with McPhee's wonderful reportage and turn of phrase, this is a great opportunity to catch up. I remember the incredulity of an American student a couple of years ago who was almost unable to believe me when I revealed that I hadn't heard of, let alone read, McPhee. I have now, and I am eternally grateful for the introduction.' Douglas Palmer in New Scientist
