| Summary: | A night sky is not an absence of light. It is the presence of the universe. In The Wild Dark, master storyteller Craig Childs embarks on a quest to bike from the blinding lights of the Las Vegas Strip to one of the darkest spots in North America. Childs is a fearless explorer of both the natural world and the human imagination, making him the perfect guide to help us rediscover the heavens and to ask "What does it do to us to not see the night sky?" In a book that is at once an adventure story, a field guide and a celebration of wonder, Childs invites us to look up and to look inward, eyes wide and sparkling with stars.
