Landscapes, cattle, ranchers and ranching in the Wet Mountain Valley of south central Colorado are featured in this collection of color and b&w photographs, along with brief descriptions of the land and the ranchers' way of life. The everyday aspects of ranching are contrasted with brilliant photos of the landscapes. No bibliography or index is included. Gillette is an international photographer who has worked for national magazines, as well as Iowa State U. He has photographed ranchers and ranching since the 1960s and made a documentary about a ranching family. Annotation ©2006 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
