Hardcover. Condition: Like New. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. Inscribed "To Sandy Great to finally meet ya! Michael Crouser". A powerful visual monograph and narrative essay that records the disappearing world of traditional cattle ranching in northwestern Colorado. The book contains 165 timeless black-and-white photographs taken over a ten-year period. It captures the gritty reality, hard work, and deep connection between the generational ranching families, their animals, and the rugged landscape. Michael Crouser is an American fine art and commercial photographer known for his timeless, deeply texturized black-and-white film imagery. Rather than adopting digital technology, Crouser maintains a strict allegiance to traditional darkroom craftsmanship, making his work stand out for its classical, painterly aesthetic. In 2012, the prestigious Leica Gallery in New York City celebrated his career with a 25-year exhibition titled Michael Crouser: A Mid-Career Retrospective. He was also awarded the prestigious George Eastman/Power of the Image Award. Signed by Author.
