5.0 out of 5 stars About This Book..., November 3, 2009
This review is from: The Nebraska Sand Hills: The Human Landscape (Hardcover)
A superb summary of this remarkable piece of work appears above in the product description. I can't top it! However, I can provide some nitty-gritty.

This is a cloth-covered, large-format hardback from the University of Nebraska Press. 266 pp of creamy stock with 107 b&w illustrations.
