From fish to deer, places to people, and everywhere in between, George Rogers captures the essence of Wisconsin’s wildlife and history in Among the Leaves. “What happened to THE State Park?” and “where have all the passenger pigeons gone?” are some of the questions answered in this captivating description of what the outdoors has to offer, both in Wisconsin and beyond. As a writer for the Stevens Point Journal and the Portage County Gazette, Rogers wrote an expertly crafted, widely read outdoor living column.

This collection contains Rogers’ personal favorite stories, along with brand new entries for both readers new to Rogers as well as old friends. Not only does Among the Leaves detail nature and its rich history, it also shows the grand adventures of a man who never lost sight of what the outdoors really means, both to him and to the world.
