Publisher's Synopsis
A Life Touched by Nature tells the story of Jack Connery, a Central Floridian, whose early love of the natural world was nurtured and developed through the scouting movement. At a young age he was awarded Eagle Scout status and became an Audubon Society member, joining the fight to protect Florida's rich avian landscape. His lasting achievement was as the visionary co-founder of Mead Botanical Garden in Winter Park, Florida, the legacy garden of the famous American horticulturist, Theodore Mead, that opened in 1940.
