Gordon Hempton

John Grossmann

Emmy Award-winning acoustic ecologist Hempton pens a beautifully written call to arms against the agents of manmade noise, in this eloquent defense of natural quiet that comes packaged with the author's astounding recordings of nature.

One Square Inch of Silence

Hans Gerwitz

I really want to love this book. I strongly support Gordon's mission. But this is an interesting idea and a few good stories buried within page after page of reiteration and senseless descriptive narrative.

I highly recommend reading the first chapter or two, and learning more about the One Square Inch project; we even took the hike to visit it. But I cannot recommend reading this entire book.
