Description: "This new collection finds photographer James Jeffrey Higgins exploring the fading farms and small towns of the Ohio Valley. His photographs capture the beauty and majesty of the landscape and the spirit of the people who remain in a region beset by economic losses. While recording the everpresent signs of hard times, Mr. Higgins also captures a powerful sense of place, a victory of the spirit."--BOOK JACKET.
