'Anthill' follows the thrilling adventures of a modern-day Huck Finn, whose improbable love of the 'strange, beautiful and elegant' world of ants ends up transforming his own life and the citizens of Nokobee County. Winner of the 2010 Heartland Prize, Anthill follows the thrilling adventures of a modern-day Huck Finn, enthralled with the "strange, beautiful, and elegant" world of his native Nokobee County. But as developers begin to threaten the endangered marshlands around which he lives, the book's hero decides to take decisive action. Edward O. Wilson-the world's greatest living biologist-elegantly balances glimpses of science with the gripping saga of a boy determined to save the world from its most savage ecological predator: man himself.
