May we recognize, the black virtuous life giving membrane of the earth, tilled by the hands of God. May it grant to us the eyes to see, heart to wonder, ears to listen, will to tend & faith to understand, this ground we walk 'pon, so close neath our standing, clay formed figures.T his was my first personal book re-read of the year. I first read it roughly 18 months ago. I would compare reading it to that of receiving a warm home made loaf of bread from a friend. Hearty & life giving. The impression of the initial read has not left my mind. One of rather awed and sculpted beauty, historical laced prose with words and phrases so close to the hands, often I felt led to read certain lines aloud. As if I were reading from The Psalter. Often times I would want to run outside barefoot in the rain and dance, stand on, feel the presence of, that speckled life giving black ocean neath our feet- dirt. Mr. Logan's strong and wise presence of mind and soul shine forth in the ink of this book bright. An author who seems to be able to clearly articulate mystery & beauty in such a way, as to help you grasp and wrestle it down from the moon, to have and to hold, to look at for one moment, catch a few contours in the face, 'fore it flys back up in the sky. He jumps, digs, tugs, lifts, pulls into all different territorial grounds of geology, theology, history, husbandry, and soils. Giving you such rich abundant crop of wise encounter & life experience, one comes to receive dirt almost for the first time, as a new truth and revelation, as the soil, as the earth, as the land, as a giver of life, a gifted & balanced virtuous place of transformation, celebration & offering, one we should hold each day.onebookwiser.comLife springing ocean,mighty dark neath our standing,clay formed figures. Dirt. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Dirt Is An Essay on Life and Death and Everything In Between *by P***O on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 20, 2014* This book is one of my favorites, one of only 3 that I have reread in a lifetime of reading thousands of books. It is a book woven by a storyteller, one who draws you into what should be a short story about the very stuff we walk on and makes you hungry for more stories, more information, more pages.I loved this book from the very first story about life beginning in the bed of a deserted pick up truck to the very end when Logan talks about earth and life and civilizations before us. It is almost as though Logan wrote a biography of dirt - where, why, how and who - a tale of who's who and history, a drama about...dirt.I loved this book as an organic gardener. For 30 years I have played in the dirt in my backyard, enriching it, walking on it, harvesting from it without so much as a thought about it. Dirt, the foundation from which tendrils, blades of grass, giant oaks spring. Dirt in its nascent form; dirt shaped by man, dirt retooled to build. Dirt.In this exquisite boo, Logan ranges from ancient Rome to the modern megalopolis of New York City, writing with joy about earthworms, composting and even the dung beetle. If you want to learn about the stuff we walk on, grow in and often take for granted - Dirt: The Ecstatic Skin of the Earth is the right book to pick up. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Many provocative ideas and tons of facts *by D***L on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 14, 2021* Enjoyed all the details about dirt. Learned something new in almost every chapter about the earth/dirt. Best of all, the material was presented in a light, witty way. I was never bored, as I thought before I bought this book, because just how much can your really find out about "dirt".The author obviously is passionate about his subject and consequently I also felt excited reading about how he felt about dirt. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/5027834-dirt-the-ecstatic-skin-of-the-earth](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/5027834-dirt-the-ecstatic-skin-of-the-earth) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-08-08*
