The Soul Tree speaks to the
landscapes of interior and exterior
reality.  In this collection, those two
landscapes have found harmony
through these two artists working
together in celebration of what
they love."

North Carolina Poet Laureate
"Laura Hope-Gill and John Fletcher, Jr.,
have created a collaboration as
beautiful and moving as any I've ever
seen, a seamlessly interwoven
collection of words and images that
invite and inspire...
This collection of poems and
photographs is a gift outright.  
It is a gorgeous work of love
and generosity, reminding us
how deeply restorative Nature
is when perceived with the
heart's eye and what a
profound muse Nature
becomes when alchemized by
a poet of Laura Hope-Gill's
capabilities.   A book to own
and cherish.
