Big Sky Country: The Best of Montana, North Dakota, Wyoming, and Idaho - Hardcover
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."

From School Library Journal:
YA. A mainly pictorial essay of Montana, North Dakota, Wyoming, and Idaho. From the Badlands to the Grand Tetons to Glacier National Park, the views are breathtaking. A reminder of how this country looked only a few hundred years ago, the book fills readers with wonder at and appreciation for the natural beauty that can still be found. The introduction offers suggestions of art and writings that will further enable YAs to view the land as it once was.
