Description
This new edition of the 1979 conservation masterpiece includes 150 unparalleled photographs of the American Desert Southwest landscape paired with Abbey's eloquent text. When first published, Desert Images was a watershed project in the nascent environmental movement--bringing together two titans of American literature and art in their heyday. Still resonating all these decades later, Muench's evocative photography and Abbey's fiery, poetic text remain an unsurpassed tribute to this extraordinary American landscape. Those who imagine that the desert is merely a monotonous vista of sand and rock will be surprised by the variety of landforms, plants, and other natural phenomena shown on these pages. As Abbey wrote, "For some of those who have learned not only to live in but also to love the desert, it offers rewards greater than its visual appeal to the sense of beauty--the promise implicit in all that rugged wildness, that open, unfenced, untrammeled space--the sense of adventure, the reality of freedom, the hope of a refuge." This photographic and literary passport to a great American wilderness will be treasured by all those who cherish the natural world.EXTRA 10 % discount with code: EXTRA
