About This Item
Reno & Las Vegas:: University of Nevada Press,, (2002). Hardcover first edition -. Near fine in near fine dust jacket.. First printing. A collection of essays which depict the author's Southwestern journey from "greenhorn to old-timer, from tourist to committed defender of the land and the human communities that share it. She writes of exploring the deserts, forests, canyons, mountains, and river rapids of the Southwest, and of her passionate love for this austere and ravishing landscape; of family, friends, and lovers, a woman's wary passage into middle age, the discovery of peace and balance in the execution of mundane chores and in the close observation of natural surroundings; of the ways that development is destroying the Southwest's fragile beauty, and of the greed and spiritual emptiness that motivate much of this development." A title in the Environmental Arts and Humanities Series. 168 pp.
