Synopsis
Fascination with the life of freedom associated with cowboys and the American West is integral to the mythology of our time and culture. In his cinematic novel Ranch, Michael Light reveals as much about the myth as he does about the specific traditional California ranch that he photographs. "Depictions of the West as a vast garden of romantic innocence and male possibility abound, but the claustrophobic violence and domination required to turn the dream into reality are perhaps less familiar."--the publisher. Part of a new series of books with gravure illustrations, this monograph is exquisitely reproduced and a must for those interested in the myth and reality of the West.
