Welcome to the Stone Country Book Club Blog

Hello everyone and welcome to the Stone Country Book Club Blog!  We created this blog to be able to reach out to everyone and keep everyone updated on what's going on with the book club.  So first, here's a little history on the Stone Country Book Club:

The Stone Country Book Club was started in Philadelphia in the spring of 2010 by four friends who shared an in interest in Nature writing, deep ecology, re-wilding and environmental issues.  As of January 2011 we have read eight books and had seven excellent discussions, with many more books considered as options for future selections.
