This book is aimed at las turistas not los fotógrafos, so I won't even attempt a sales spiel. But I would like to thank Nat Coalson for helping with problems I had while designing the cover and Bill Pelzmann, Cynthia Spence, and others for rowing me down the Green River in Dinosaur National Monument while I pretended to have a bad back. And I'll even reluctantly thank Mr. Stensland for giving me advice on some places to shoot in RMNP. I'm glad to know such a great group of people!
Typical high quality, fine art photography from you, Grant. I wish you great success with it! You should consider selling copies out of the Anasazi Heritage Center outside of Dolores.
On a side note, that has got to be the finest image I've ever seen from Yucca House (as well as one of the only ones ).

Thanks, John & CAZ. The review copy is already on its way to the people who operate the Anasazi Heritage Center. And, John, I was thinking of using this as my marketing slogan: "Stan Rose has better shots of the Great Sand Dunes, Erik Stensland has better shots of RMNP, but I have the best shots ever taken of Yucca House!"

Congrats Grant. The Yucca House shot is nice but I wouldn't sell yourself short. For instance that lightning shot at the dunes and the elk shot at RMNP are also really, really nice. Looks like another great book.

Congrats, Grant. I'm sure this will be a best seller.

Looks great, Grant. Love the cover design.

Looks like another winner. I like the cover and yucca house the best.
Looks great Grant! The only problem I noticed is that I didn't see my URL on the front cover as you promised in exchange for those unknown RMNP locations.
