About this product
Product Information
Devotees of The Outermost House (and they are legion) will be profoundly grateful for Daniel Payne's superb biography of Henry Beston, a man who wrote one of the enduring classics of American nature writing, but whose life story until now has remained largely untold. Among its many virtues, Orion on the Dunes unearths the forces that shaped Beston's remarkable book, forces carefully hidden but deeply felt by anyone who has ever read it. Book jacket.

Reviews
Praise for Orion on the Dunes "This involving and illuminating portrait, rooted in Payne's unprecedented access to private archives, vastly deepens our appreciation for Beston's profundity, prescience, and artistry."-- Booklist , starred review "An engaging and incisive biography of Beston, illuminating the life and philosophy of one of our preeminent nature writers."-- The Wall Street Journal "As it was in his life, Outermost House is at the heart of this story, but Payne's great service is what else he has to tell us about Henry Beston...Thanks to Daniel Payne, Henry Beston's light is shining stronger."-- The Barnstable Patriot "Restless, brooding, and exuberant, Beston strides across the pages of Daniel Payne's scrupulously researched new biography, Orion on the Dunes ."-- The Massachusetts Review
