Query: Rants in every chapter

I bought this book expecting it to have lyrical prose, close observations of nature and a spiritual perspective. I was going to give it as a gift, and after reading other reviews I expected it to be uplifting. Before I gift wrapped it, I dipped into it in a few places and was surprised to see the writer expressing disappointment in how people treat nature as the main thrust in every essay I reviewed. Sadness was the emotion I felt. I went back to it at three different times, just to make sure that my evaluation remained the same.I agree with the author that people are desecrating Nature at every turn, but that was not what I expected to find in this book, based on the other reviews. Not only that, this book popped up on my recommendations list because I was searching for Loren Eisley, and its prose is -- well, prosaic.I returned the copies I bought. It just wasn't for me, even to pass on.
