Reviews / Votes
"Substantial, provocative, necessary, lasting." -- The Bloomsbury Review "This landmark anthology samples work from the panoply of poetic voices that spring from, or find a home in, the American West... Startling and poignant... Insightful biographical notes do much to place the work in a larger literary and social context; historical and contemporary photographs of the people and landscapes of the West make it an exceptionally handsome book." -- Boston ReviewMore details
