This book represents the culmination of David Grant Noble's
forty-year career as a fine arts photographer and writer. It
features seventy-five black-and-white photographs of the land,
people, and deep past of the Southwest, most published here for the
first time. Accompanying these beautiful images are personal
reflections interwoven with historical and anthropological
information. The moving passages reveal much about both the man and
the magnificent land that inspires his artistry. "The places we
know," Noble writes, "can be infused with memory and spirit, and
landscapes can have soul. The stories contained may speak of
creation, gods, mythic monsters, and heroes. They may hold
narratives reminding us of triumphs and defeats, sorrows and joys.
A place is more than a landform or an ecosystem; it has the
capacity to evoke emotion, transmit knowledge and wisdom, and even
show people how to live." These photographs and words portray the
land's soul, the artist's vision. Through them, the ancient
landscapes and peoples of the Southwest tell their tales, display
their beauty, remind us that we are only the most recent of many
who have lived and been inspired here.
