There is a graceful and tacit balance, an understanding of the mature and dynamic relationship between our shared rights and responsibilities; and of the poignant, bitter-sweet realization - sometimes spoken, other times implicit - that not all resources are infinite or even renewable - wildness, or wilderness, chief among them." - Rick Bass, author of Winter: Notes from Montana and Platte River, There is a graceful and tacit balance, an understanding of the mature and dynamic relationship between our shared rights and responsibilities; and of the poignant, bittersweet realization-sometimes spoken, other times implicit-that not all resources are infinite or even renewable-wildness, or wilderness, chief among them.

Synopsis
Since 1980, the Adirondack mountains in New York have inspired a resident population of writers and have gained regional and national prominence as these writers use the Adirondacks as their primary setting and subject matter. This anthology contains works by 43 writers from the region., In the past twenty years the Adirondacks have inspired a resident population of writers who have gained regional and national prominence using the Adirondack region as their primary setting and subject matter--or at least as a significant point of departure. Rooted in Rock is the first collection of its kind in more than twenty years, since Paul Jamieson's Adirondack Reader. What makes the volume unique, though, is the number of contributors who not only make the Adirondacks their subject, but who make their homes in these mountains. The works in this volume include contemporary essays, literary nonfiction, poetry, short fiction, and excerpted fiction and are a mix of new and previously published writings by forty-three authors, established as well as emerging, including Bill McKibben, Sue Halpern, Russell Banks, Alex Schoumatoff, Chase Twichell, Curt Stager, Amy Godine, and Jim Gould, to name a few., Contemporary essays, literary nonfiction, poetry, short fiction, and excerpted fiction complete this anthology-the first since Paul Jamieson's Adirondack Reoder in more than twenty years-a sampling of some of the most exciting writers of the Adirondack Mountains. In the past twenty years the Adirondacks have inspired a resident population of writers and has gained regional and national prominence using the Adirondacks as their primary setting and subject matter or at least a significant point of departure. This anthology includes a mix of new and previously published works by forty-three established and emerging writers including Bill McKibben, Sue Halpern, Russell Banks, Alex Schoumatoff, Chase Twichell, Curt Stager, Amy Godine, Jim Gould, to name a few.
