I cannot truly verbalize how important I think this book is. Not only is it poetic, and beautiful in it’s setting, but it explains how we got to where we are in our collective climate disaster, specifically through the past few generations of farmers. Not so long ago, our farmers were able to work with the land, and could care deeply about the wildlife they shared it with, common practices enabled them to thrive hand in hand. Then chemicals became commonly applied to the land and so began the vicious cycle of monocrop farming on a grand scale. What this led to, is the death of wildlife, the soil itself and the diversity of food crops, which brought everything to its knees. The genius of Rebank’s book is that it so beautifully describes how quickly we got here, and so, if the collective will is strong enough, how quickly we can return, to not only the idyll, but the way of life, not only for us, but our wildlife, and ultimately our planet. A must read for all! ~ Reviewed by Becky Doherty

This is the perfect book for anyone who wants a cleareyed, scientific and succinct review of evidence of climate change brought on by humanity since 1968. By choosing a specific date (Jarhen's birthdate) the author not only picks a critical date in social history but also in scientific history. Jarhen also makes the double edge note of not overwhelming the reader but also imparting a sense of immediacy but also of responsibility. Put it on your reading list next to Greta Thumberg's No One Is Too Small to Make A Difference. ~ Reviewed by Maeve Noonan

Unlike with sporting events, the “human game” has no clear end point, so in Falter, Bill McKibben positions the game’s environmental, economic, and political components as crises we currently face, at once a eulogy for and a plea that we all might play out this game as individual people and as members of the human community, and so every one of us can win. ~ Reviewed by Ray Marsocci
