Like an anxious homeowner anticipating the arrival of guests, a beaming Asa Wright, her smile immortalised in a black and white photograph, greets visitors and nature lovers as they set foot through the doors of the Asa Wright Nature Centre.
Some pay little notice to the picture, instead heading straight for the world-famous verandah, while others stop to ponder over the woman behind the smile, as if giving their respects to the Centre’s namesake.
Having died in 1971, very few people today actually know who Asa Wright was and very little has been written about her. That is until now. In her book, The Old House and The Dream, writer Joy Rudder provides the reader with an intimate look at Asa Wright herself.
