DJ/None. Front endpaper removed. Melding of the wordless-visual and the literary all prose-and-poetry to create a human and natural history of North America --- bringing together of the landscapes of Eliot Porter (1901 - 1990) who taught himself how to photograph, with musings of historian and 'dean of American Western writers' Wallace Stegner (1909 - 1993), and his son and heir, Page Stegner (1937 - ).
