Love Letter to Ramah

“A book of gentle wisdom and quiet inspiration. . . . If you want to understand both the land and the culture of northern New Mexico, you couldn’t find a better source.”—Glenn Aparicio Parry, author of Original Politics: Making America Sacred Again

“Tim Amsden reveals a deep sense of the land and lore of that patch of paradise presently known as New Mexico, and he presents the reader with a wide range of insights into the nature of the ecology, cultural diversity, deep history, and exquisite beauty of the Southwest.”—Jack Loeffler, author of A Pagan Polemic: Reflections on Nature, Consciousness, and Anarchism

“Amsdsen’s stories illustrate how his time in the Ramah area cultivated his deep sense of place and rekindled his belief in the sustaining power of a diverse human community. I highly recommend it as an introduction to this beautiful portion of the American Southwest and a heartwarming read for those of us still open to awe and connection.”—Carla R. Van West, former director of research, SRI Foundation
