A priceless interview for all animal lovers with Santa Fe’s Hersch Wilson, recently retired volunteer firefighter after 33 years, soccer coach, organizational consultant, master storyteller, former dancer, author of the acclaimed Firefighter Zen and today’s newly released Dog Lessons: Learning the Important Stuff from Our Best Friends.

Listen and you might tear up and deeply relate to the wisdom stories Hersch tells about Maisie and his other canine companions over his and their lifetimes and be prepared to listen to and see your own beloved dogs with new ears and eyes. Understand that you, like Hersch, are a dog guardian, privileged to live in harmony with a sentient being known to humanity for 40,000 years. Hersch will speak at Collected Works bookstore on Thursday, September 21st at 6:00 pm and don’t be surprised to hear a welcoming woof, woof as you enter the store on Galisteo St. herschwilson.com
