Free Flow

Rezensionen / Stimmen

The Gila River is under attack from people who want to divert its water and channel its wildness. Buy this book. Contemplate its images. Write your own poem. We are all called upon now to engage with beauty and with what threatens beauty. - Sharman Apt Russell, author of Standing in the Light: My Life as a Pantheist and Hunger: An Unnatural History ""As New Mexico's last free-flowing river, the Gila continually amazes me. Its ancient waters and abundant wildlife are a gift to the people of our state. Dragonflies, wildflowers, cottonwoods, the Southwestern Willow Flycatcher, the threatened Loach Minnow, all combine to create a mystical atmosphere that has been celebrated for centuries. Jan Haley's emotional photographs catch the Gila in moments of time that will forever remind us of what we have - and what we will strive to always protect."" - Diane Denish, Lt. Governor of New Mexico
