Query: Breathing life into the land

TABLE OF CONTENTS sounds like a work-in-progress title that ended up too accurate to discard. Here is one man's net cast wide, and John McPhee brings his peculiarly illuminative style to bear on bears and dams, family practice and a basketball player shooting for re-election to the Senate. Using succinct particulars to demonstrate the general, the author lives with his subjects and breathes their life into his writing. If you appreciated his style in ENCOUNTERS WITH THE ARCHDRUID (Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 1977), BASIN AND RANGE (Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 1982), COMING INTO THE COUNTRY (Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 1991) or THE CURVE OF BINDING ENERGY (Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 1994), to mention just a few of his dozens of books, you know what to expect. Essay is my favorite form of literature and McPhee is a master.
