The University of Iowa Press is proud to present our newest Bur Oak Book, A Sugar Creek Chronicle: Observing Climate Change from a Midwestern Woodland, by ecologist Cornelia Mutel.

Praise for A Sugar Creek Chronicle
"This is a rich and astute story of balance, stability, and their opposites, in the life of a person and of a planet. It helps set the great changes now underway around us in a powerful, manageable context. I highly recommend it."
--Bill McKibben, author, Eaarth: Making a Life on a Tough New Planet
"A Sugar Creek Chronicle is as well-researched as it is written. Climate change is already hitting home. Connecting the dots to the underlying science is often difficult. Mutel does just that, and does it superbly."
--Gernot Wagner, coauthor, Climate Shock: The Economic Consequences of a Hotter Planet

As this year's keynote speaker, Connie Mutel will talk about writing A Sugar Creek Chronicle. She will tell stories about how climate change has reshaped her life, the woods where she lives, and the planet, even as it challenges us to reframe our care for the globe and its inhabitants. Books will be available for purchase.
