Publisher Synopsis
"The culmination of two decades of photographing the landscapes, back roads, and wildlife of the American West, Joutras's coffee-table book records a world that is vanishing before us. Its 117 photographs range from vivid, detailed, and color-saturated impressions of nature, such as the forgotten hills and valleys of the Great Plains, to intimate and elusive glimpses of the creatures that inhabit the prairie. Although every image in this book is of high caliber, Joutras shows unusual skill in capturing the personalities of wildlife and how animals interact with others of their species, such as sandhill cranes performing their "river dance" or fox cubs playing. Joutras discusses his growth as a photographer and some of the challenges of trying to capture fleeting images in constant change. Recommended for all public and academic libraries."
