We loved it all : a memory of life

Summary/Review: Drawing on a quarter-century of experience as an advocate for endangered species at the Center for Biological Diversity, Lydia Millet offers intimate portraits of what she calls "the others"--the extraordinary animals with whom we still share the world, along with those already lost. Humans, too, fill this book, as Millet touches on the lives of her world-traveling parents, fascinating partners and friends, and colorful relatives, from diplomats to nut farmers, all figures in the complex tapestry each of us weaves with the surrounding world.
