Where the Bluebird Sings to the Lemonade Springs: Living and Writing in the West (Modern Library Classics)by Wallace Earle Stegner
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Nominated for a National Book Critics Circle award, Where the Bluebird Sings to the Lemonade Springs gathers together Wallace Stegners 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 writers 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. Synopsis:This book brings together essays, criticism, and excerpts to provide a varied and fascinating account of the American West, its history, and our need to preserve it. About the AuthorT. H. Watkins (1936-2000) was the first Wallace Stegner Dis-tinguished Professor of Western American Studies at Montana State University. Watkins wrote twenty-eight books on history, the environment, and nature, including Righteous Pilgrim: The Life of Harold Ickes, which won a Los Angeles Times Book Award.
