Sensuous visit to Oregon's high desert

A poetic history of geography, environment, culture ~describing the author's personal love of Place, Lake County, Oregon .I immediately wanted to re-read this book. Beautiful writing.

Smell the sagebrush

Took me back home. Been there, done that, saw most of it. Just as advertised, and still in the shrink wrap. Great job. Thanks.

Great local color.

I loved this book! The author was raised about a hundred miles from where I live. It gave me some ideas on where to go to photograph petroglyphs. I was very familiar with most of the places he talked about and knew of some of the events he mentioned.

He also had some ideas on the interpretation of petroglyphs which led me to purchase another book, "The Rocks Begin to Speak" by LaVan Martineau. This also, was a very good book.

If you are from Eastern Oregon you would enjoy this book.
