Stunning photography and the touching story of a monument of love built on Heart Island. Boldt Castle in the Thousand Islands Region of the St. Lawrence River stands as a remembrance of the magnificence of a bygone era. In 1900, George C. Boldt set out to build the castle for his wife, Louise. But four years after the project began, Louise died suddenly. Boldt halted construction and the castle was never completed. The existing structure fell into disrepair, until the 1970s, when restoration was undertaken by the Thousand Islands Bridge Authority. Today, many boat tours take visitors to the island. In this beautiful photographic book, the author tells the story behind the crumbling castle he first encountered as a child, and its restoration.

"Shards of glass can cut and wound or magnify a vision," Terry Tempest Williams tells us. "Mosaic celebrates brokenness and the beauty of being brought together." Ranging from Ravenna, Italy, where she learns the ancient art of mosaic, to the American Southwest, where she observes prairie dogs on the brink of extinction, to a small village in Rwanda where she joins genocide survivors to build a memorial from the rubble of war, Williams searches for meaning and community in an era of physical and spiritual fragmentation. In her compassionate meditation on how nature and humans both collide and connect, Williams affirms a reverence for all life, and constructs a narrative of hopeful acts, taking that which is broken and creating something whole.
