Description: "Concrete Botany is part ecological narrative and part call-to-arms from botany's bad-boy citizen scientist, Joey Santore of Crime Pays but Botany Doesn't"-- Provided by publisher.
Review Quotes:
"Finally, a book about botany that meets you where you are: in your front yard, in a junkyard, in the school yard. Joey Santore reminds us that nature isn't a distant place we go visit on a Sunday afternoon--it's growing out of a crack in the sidewalk, right now. Concrete Botany is a raw and passionate account of Santore's hardscrabble botanizing adventures, and a rebellious manifesto for living on Earth in the twenty-first century."
