Description
Based on Jeremy Collins’ extensive, art-filled travel journals, Eventually a Sequoia is part memoir, part manifesto. Collins, already highly regarded as an artist and climber, was invited to bring his sketchbook on a new kind of adventure: documenting the experiences of those who live along the endangered Amazon River. From there, his art and his curiosity took him to other endangered corners of the world, including the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, the mountains of Nepal, Bears Ears National Monument, and the soaring redwoods of California.
Collins’ art-based storytelling captures these experiences in visceral form, from the wonder of passing caribou to the terror of a venomous snakebite. Through it all, he profiles the “sequoias” he meets—people whose small seeds produce enormous results, like explorer and film director Céline Cousteau, community organizer and educator Prem Kunwar, Ancient Forest Society founder Wendy Baxter, and more.
Eventually a Sequoia is an inspirational and vivid exploration of the natural world and how it can empower an individual to grow, change, heal, and thrive.
Advance Praise
“The artful world is made by hand. This book is a reminder. Journeys are done by foot. Adventures happen by ropes and caves and fire. Part graphic novel, part literary travel experiment, part oral history, this can be read page by page or crack it anywhere and see where you land.” —Craig Childs, author of House of Rain and The Wild Dark
“Eventually a Sequoia is a soulful, visually stunning journey through art, adventure, and the quiet power of growth. With curiosity as his compass and a pen in hand, Jeremy Collins brings us stories of people rooted in purpose and reaching toward something greater. Like the trees that inspired its name, this book is a testament to patience, grace, and the long, meaningful climb toward becoming.” —Rue Mapp, Founder and CEO, Outdoor Afro
“In Eventually a Sequoia, Jeremy Collins tackles big issues in a deceivingly simple way--direct, tight, and immersive storytelling balanced by his killer art, which brings a warmth and deeper understanding to these heavy topics. Incredible.” —Jeremy Jones, Founder, Protect Our Winters
“What comes through in Eventually a Sequoia is a kind of reverence--for people, for story, for the slow work of transformation. This book blends art, field notes, and lived experience into something rare: a guide to living with intention, humility, and wonder.” —Len Necefer, Founder and CEO, Native Outdoors
“In this memoir that blurs the line between visual art and words, Collins has given us an authentic guide for the modern adventurer. Masterful.” —Chris Burkard, photographer and author of The Oceans
