Lawrence Millman has written fifteen books, including such titles as Our Like Will Not Be There Again, Last Places, Northern Latitudes, An Evening Among Headhunters, A Kayak Full of Ghosts, and—most recently—the first ever guidebook to New England mushrooms. His essays and articles have appeared in National Geographic, Smithsonian, Sports Illustrated, Atlantic Monthly, and Outside. As a traveler, he chooses his destinations based on the Internet: if a place doesn’t have a website, he’ll immediately pack his bags and head there. He keeps a post office box in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
