Garry Glidden presents Close to Land but Nearer the Stars, a captivating anthology of line, verse, and thought. This literary endeavor was inspired by the author's observations and perceptions of nature and life at large. Nature, after all, is filled with vast beauty. Glidden pays tribute to the natural world and all of its wonders in this book.

The book highlights Glidden's recent works and earlier writings as he began writing and archiving his poems. He has sought to retain a natural, almost conversational tone to avoid an overtly poetic and high brow writing style.

With this book, Glidden hopes that readers can experience joy and wonder as they become more mindful of nature and life's inspiring manifestations.

He tries to capture, as does the artist in capturing the changing details of weather and light, a perspective that is reflective of what he sees, hears, or notices in everyday life, in a moment in time.
