It is hard to love the high, cold plains of the American West. They
are vast and harsh and demanding. And perhaps because they are so
hard to love, prairies challenge the imaginative mind and the
adventurous heart. The Wide Open reveals how some of the most
interesting and accomplished writers and photographers in the
country have met that challenge and given the genius of the prairie
a vision and a voice. Their stories are as diverse as the tellers,
ranging from fiction by Barry Lopez, Richard Ford, and William
Kittredge, to the childhood histories of Mary Clearman Blew and
Judy Blunt and the nonfiction narratives of Jim Harrison, Gretel
Ehrlich, and Rick Bass. There are works by Native American prairie
dwellers such as M. L. Smoker and James Welch and the photographic
interpretations of Lee Friedlander, Lois Conner, and Geoffrey
James. Personal or poetic, journalistic or scientific, these works
eloquently attest to the prairie's abundance in all its human and
natural variety, offering pictures as wide open and rich as the
land they depict.
