It is hardly news that our planet is on the brink of ecological disaster. Yet amid the alarming headlines, a grassroots restoration movement, comprised largely of everyday people and sponsored by organizations like The Nature Conservancy, has sprouted up and become the most vital environmental force in America. This compelling story of heroism and tenacious human spirit-- the first book to look at this momentous new movement--brings alive one of its most astonishing victories. Once a thriving habitat, Vestal Grove, a tract of land along the Chicago River, was abandoned and on the edge of oblivion. But Steve Packard, a charismatic, modern-day Thoreau, was determined to bring it back. With a small troop of volunteers, he began clearing the land only to make an amazing discovery: Vestal Grove was a long-lost ecosystem. Neither prairie nor forest, it was a living community so finely turned that only certain flora and fauna could live in its unique dapple of sun and shade. The challenge was to unearth its ecological Rosetta stone and find the secrets of its survival. Little did Packard and the others know just how wondrous those secrets would be. A page-turning mystery, inspirational drama, and uplifting testament to a new breed of American pioneer, Miracle Under the Oaks is an important book for everyone--environmentalists, lovers of natures, dedicated gardeners, and the new generation that will inherit the earth.Binding Type: Paperback

Much too soft. I have to purchase a second pillow in order to raise my head up sufficiently.

LOVE this pillow!!!! I have 2!!!!
Size: Queen (Mid Loft), Number of Items: 1
Well…..I have a love affair with these latex pillows. I purchased 2 of them. I have been allergic to feathers since birth and could only use latex pillows growing up. But, they became very hard to find for many years. I tried all the other kinds of pillows on the market and hated them all!!! “Won’t go flat!”….. whatever! They would go flat almost immediately. Or “Good for side sleepers!”….. NOPE!! I had a stiff neck for a week!! DONE with all of them. So,I finally got on Amazon and found this pillow. Ahhhhhh!! Loved it. Slept like a log! All night! Didn’t go flat!! No stiff neck!!! A winner!!!! Frankly,I don’t care about the cost… yeah…I know….we call have to count our change……including me. I saved to buy this pillow…..both times. AND, I would do it AGAIN!!!! And…proud to do it! So, if you have had it with all of those new prefangled so-called pillows…try this one. I would only avoid it like the plague if you are allergic to latex. Otherwise,I would definitely recommend this pillow! Wherever I go….my pillow goes. Camping, on a trip, to visit relatives…..my pillow will travel!!!!

The Perfect Pillow
Size: Queen (Low Loft)
Finally found the right pillow for me. I have purchased quite a few latex pillows attempting to find the right one. I was apprehensive due to the support description being "extra soft". Yes, it's super soft when you pick it up and squeeze it, but it provides the perfect amount of support for side and back sleeping.
