Pulitzer Prize winner Edward O. Wilson recalls his lifetime with ants, from his first boyhood encounters in the woods of Alabama to perilous journeys into the Brazilian rainforest.

What The Reviewers Say

Steve Donoghue,
The Boston Globe
...a rapturously unapologetic hymn of praise to the roughly one quadrillion ants on the planet.
Barbara J. King,
The Washington Post
With its modest and sometimes amusing tone, the book is a delight — and may coax readers to take up ant-watching themselves.
John Young,
The Pittsburg Post-Gazette
... resists simple categorization. It is all the richer a read for it.
Henry L. Carrigan Jr.,
BookPage
Whether he’s writing about island biogeography, sociobiology, human nature or biodiversity, naturalist Edward O. Wilson tells a cracking good story.
