Kenya’s 1.2 million Maasai people are profoundly affected both by climate change and the shrinking of the grazing land available to them, both because of urbanization and agricultural expansion.

“These children will be change-makers,” says Mosinte Nkoitiko, a 46-year-old cultural chief who traveled here from Tanzania. “That’s the message that we want to send to them. They are the ones facing these challenges, and we want them to know that they are not alone.”When this temporary settlement was built for the warrior camp, they also planted 150 seeds and 50 seedlings: trees that they hope will grow with their children.“The trees have been blessed by their fathers and grandfathers, so that they can now have children,” says Joyce Naingisa. “They are starting a new generation.”

22nd installment in a series that inspired a TV show that ran for 6 seasons on A&E and Netflix.Given the size of the desert and the length of time McGowan has been missing, Longmire puts his chances as “not likely.” Going undercover as a postal worker, which fools nobody, he and his dog named Dog head off into the desert in the ancient Travelall and follow the woman’s delivery route.

Johnson is known for creating memorable characters, and perhaps the most memorable this time is Dog, a German Shepherd-Saint Bernard mix who is as smart and loyal as they come. The Travelall emerges as something of a character in its own right, with its quirks and an odd body shape plastered with Flower Power, Grateful Dead, The Doors, Jefferson Airplane, and Age of Aquarius stickers.Eventually, Longmire discovers McGowan in the clutches of a weird-as-they-come religious cult, shoots it out with its gun-toting members, and commits several remarkable acts of heroism.
