Heartland: The Plains and the Prairie [Hardcover]

Walt Whitman celebrated the American plains thus: While I know the standard claim is that Yosemite, Niagara Falls, the upper Yellowstone and the like afford the greatest natural shows, I am not so sure but the Prairies and Plains, while less stunning at first sight, last longer, fill the esthetic sense fuller, precede all the rest, and make North Americas characteristic landscape.The great Midwestern landscape is celebrated by the noted photographer in magnificent reproductions of his work. A gorgeous body of black-and-white images&. These photographs reshape how we look at this most familiar of landscapes. Reverent photographs of the vast Midwestern landscape.
