One of the greatest privileges of an adventurer is to share the outdoors with the animals who call it home. The Alphabeast series of designs, published in 2017,  pays tribute to the great beasts of our nation who are painfully close to extinction. To continue our work of protecting these incredible animals, Type Hike partnered with Jazzy Danziger, the author of Darkroom and former series editor of Best New Poets, to curate a group of  the country’s greatest writers to respond to the designs with poetry. This book features each of the 26 poems alongside the design that inspired it - a tribute to our animal friends and the enduring spirit of human generosity.
