I'd like to hear your thoughts on Braiding Sweetgrass. I've heard people say it's good, but I'm not sure I'd like it.

I've actually been trying to read it for a couple of years. When it was assigned at book group, I thought, "here's my chance to finish it." It has some great writing, but it is rather dense. And there are spots that get really technical. But the biggest strike against it, IMO, is that few of us will ever have the chance to live by a pond and swim there every morning or make a basket out of ash bark, or tap a maple tree for its sap. So, it's hard to relate.

Why on earth is it that some people, even some who should know better, persist in rendering the title as The Sign of the Four?  ???

It's been published both ways. In the text, it's always "The Sign of the Four."

I think I prefer The Hound of the Baskervilles.
