This review is from: Stories and Stone: Writing the Anasazi Homeland (Paperback)

Stories and Stone: Writing the Anasazi Homeland is a beautifully conceived, designed, and engaging work. The book sheds new light and understanding on the ancestral puebloan people. Reuben Ellis' forward and introductory essays to each excerpt engender a deeper appreciation and cultural awareness of the southwest and its history. Excerpts from Tony Hillerman, Wallace Stegner, Marietta Wetherill, Frank Waters, and Terry Tempest Williams were among my favorite--leaving me with a strong desire find and camp in a secluded canyon beneath the silent, ghostly ruins of the Anasazi

(VINE VOICE)   

This is a selection of writings about the ancient people of the Southwest and the inspiration they have provided to many authors. The selections include pieces from European explorers and settlers, archaeologists, artists and poets. A excellent book to take along on a trip out West, or read to discover authors you want to read more from. 244 pages.

This review is from: Stories and Stone: Writing the Anasazi Homeland (Paperback)

The best literate companion for a trip to the four corners area of US. It has selections from writings touching all areas where curiousity may take you as you travel through the deserts and canyons of the Anasazi.
