Where the Bluebird Sings to the Lemonade Springs: Living and Writing in the West, Paperback/Wallace Stegner

Descriere & specificații

Nominated for a National Book Critics Circle award, Where the Bluebird Sings to the Lemonade Springs gathers together Wallace Stegner's most important and memorable writings on the American West: its landscapes, diverse history, and shifting identity; its beauty, fragility, and power. With subjects ranging from the writer's own ``migrant childhood`` to the need to protect what remains of the great western wilderness (which Stegner dubs ``the geography of hope``) to poignant profiles of western writers such as John Steinbeck and Norman Maclean, this collection is a riveting testament to the power of place. At the same time it communicates vividly the sensibility and range of this most gifted of American writers, historians, and environmentalists.
