Essays to My Daughter on Our Relationship With the Natural World is a collection of reflections by an environmental educator on lessons learned from time spent in nature. Originally conceived as personal letters to the author's daughter, the book presents ethical questions outdoor enthusiasts regularly face as they work and play in the natural world. The essays in this book explore environmentalism in a modern-day context, with topics including sustainability education, the current relevance of environmental writers from the past, and the uncertainty of what is meant by words like naturalist, solitude, and wilderness. There is no attempt to direct readers to any particular environmental philosophy. Instead, Simpson encourages readers to articulate their own perspective based on personal experiences in nature. Though Essays to My Daughter is written by a father to his daughter, the insights within the volume and the questions they provoke are valuable to all members of the next generation as they grapple with their own relationship to the natural world.
