内容简介：
Who isn't tempted to retreat to the solitude of wilderness before returning to the cacophonous city? Stephen tells how it can be done. Called "a spiritual Thoreau" by one reviewer, he describes vividly what it was like to take a break from the noise of ordinary life, to heal his soul and clear his mind while surviving the fierce New England winter weather in a primitive cabin, then leading us back to "rediscovering spirit in nature" in a big city as well.
