Book - The Last Empty Places

Some books take you somewhere. This one takes you somewhere you didn't know you needed to go.

The Last Empty Places by Peter Stark is a journey into four of the most remote, wild corners of the contiguous United States — Northern Maine, Western Pennsylvania, Central New Mexico, and Southeast Oregon. Places that look blank on a map but turn out to be anything but. Stark uncovers layers of history, meaning, and quiet beauty in each one, and brings you along for every mile of it.

It's the kind of book that makes you want to clear your calendar, pack a bag, and go. Or simply sit with it and feel a little more alive.
