"A gorgeous book written by one of the most successful architects and planners in the United States. I love the book and clearly hear his voice. Powerful, enlightening, and out of the box."

Love is in the details and author Mark T. Wright gives them to us slowly, one wonder at a time. Fully embracing his conscious stewardship of the stream, we watch the blossoming of his children's self- awareness and reverence for all of life, human and non-human.

Architect Mark Wright has documented this work in his wonderful new book. We read a day by day, sometimes hour by hour, documentation of his work over a several year span through poetic and historic narratives enlivened with humor and compelling anecdotes...all of which are charged with joy and meaning. The overall picture we get is of a true work of art which had been at the heart of Mark's initial intentions.
