This books is part journal, part artist’s sketches, and part a discovery.
The journal takes us through a year in Montana, just east of the Rocky Mountains, in an area called The Front. We learn the cycles of the area, when the birds come back, and many other interesting things. We learn about the dog, whose picture is on the front cover. And we learn about the woman writing, but only via her observations.
The sketches are wonderful; the full-color ones are terrific. They allow one to “see” the country in wonderful ways.
The discovery is more about how books like this make us feel. Do you want to go and experience the area, or do you think developing is best? Do you abhor the hunting that goes on, or the rodeo, both or neither? These are individual questions, but the answers help us discover ourselves and, for me, a new part of the country.
