Pilgrim at Tinker Creek has continued to change people's lives for over thirty y
ears. A passionate and poetic reflection on the mystery of creation with its bea
uty on the one hand and cruelty on the other, it has become a modern American li
terary classic in the tradition of Thoreau. Living in solitude in the Blue Ridge
Mountains near Roanoke, Virginia, and observing the changing seasons, the flora
and fauna, the author reflects on the nature of creation and of the God who set
it in motion.
