The rugged mountains and pristine valleys of the Northern Rockies are captured in Michael Melford's photographs - landscapes of power and beauty that evoke a sense of wonder at the infinite variety of nature that can never be fully explored or understood.Included are famous natural landmarks - Craters of the Moon in Idaho, St. Mary's Lake in Glacier National Park, Devil's Tower in Wyoming, and, of course, Old Faithful - as well as the simple structures of the plains - churches, barns, and school houses - that speak to life in the Far West.In the introduction William Kittredge describes the realities of life in Montana, a place he chose in his search for "a genuine world to inhabit."
