description: The result of two remarkable conferences held by the Center of the American West at the University of Colorado, A Society to Match the Scenery is a diverse collection of essays on the future of the American West from many of the region's most talented writers, activists, politicians, lawyers, poets, journalists, environmentalists, and historians. Sometimes in agreement, sometimes in contention, these thoughtful and creative voices help us to see the West in all its complex diversity and remind us that this decade is one in which opportunities may be realized for a new and better Western experience. Contributors to this volume include Wallace Stegner, William Kittredge, Bruce Babbitt, Patricia Nelson Limerick, Terry Tempest Williams, Charles F. Wilkinson, Edward Dorn, and Walter Echo-Hawk, among many others.
