"In this collection of essays, Wyoming rancher Bob Budd takes both a sweeping and intimate look at the land he loves, its people, its history, and its future. As a rancher, he has a unique perspective on what makes the land special and how best to preserve it for the future. Describing details like the color of sagebrush, the sudden appearance of river otters, the smell of dirt, and the people who make up the land, he also talks about how ranches are integral to sustaining the environment, as they are whole ecosystems that can't be reproduced elsewhere. Taking a holistic perspective toward preserving the land, and emphasizing the need for people of all backgrounds to come together to do it, Budd takes the reader on a magical journey through the unparalleled beauty and complexity of Wyoming's ranchland and his hope for sustaining it for future generations"--
