Torah and Trails

Description

Torah and Trails is a photographic trail guide for integrating Judaism and Jewish history with environmental awareness and an appreciation of nature.

For everyone who enjoys the outdoors: camp directors, counselors, Rabbis, youth leaders, teachers, parents, outdoor educators, hikers and ecologist.

“Robbi Heschel tells us ‘… to live in radical amazement…[to] get up in the morning and look at the world in a way that takes nothing for granted…’ Torah and Trails inspires us to get outside and celebrate the wonder, awe and majesty of our natural world. For there we find ourselves, our community and joyful Judaism. Kol HaKavod Margery!”

“Margery Diamond’s text and pictures bring to life the words of Torah and the prayers of awareness that fill Jewish life. May Torah and Trails be a source of blessing in your life and may you discover how different you are when you are hiking along the trail.”

Dr. Gabe Goldman
Director of the Outdoor Jewish Classroom

“What a contribution! Margery Diamond has put her knowledge and love for Judaism together with  Nature in a joyful, creative way that will enhance the path of all who explore outdoors. I will never look at a huge tree again without seeing its face. “
