Noted nature writer Terry Tempest Williams is one of this country's most ardent advocates for the preservation of wild places.  She also knows from first-hand experience that wild woods can be dangerous, if visited with the wrong person.  In her new book of essays, "When Women Were Birds," she tells the story of the day she narrowly escaped a brutal attack, while hiking in Idaho's Sawtooth Wilderness.
