This impressive, cloth-bound debut is a lucid perspective on the prairie...It is celebratory, soulful, and poetic.-Publishers Weekly In "My Journey into the Wilds of Chicago," photographer and humorist Mike MacDonald takes you on a trip to Chicago's wild side-a verdant, untamed Chicago that has been there all along, just waiting to be explored. Combining breathtaking images and imaginative prose, MacDonald leads you on an adventure into wondrous, enchanted lands located just up the road from home, work, and school. From kaleidoscopic tallgrass prairies to the open canopies of rare oak savannas, from the free-flying expanse of the butterfly to the mysterious world of the coyote, startling photographs of a vast and scenic Chicago evoke astonishment and delight with every turn of the page.
