The Solace of Open Spaces

About the author

Gretel Ehrlich was born and
raised in California. Among
her many books are The
Future of Ice: A Journey Into
Cold, This Cold Heaven: Seven Seasons in Greenland, and A Match to the Heart. She divides her time between Wyoming and Massachusetts.

Summary

Writing of hermits, cowboys, changing seasons, and the wind, Ehrlich draws us into her personal relationship with this "planet of Wyoming" she has come to call home.
In The Solace of Open Spaces, Ehrlich captures the incredible beauty and demanding harshness of natural forces in these remote reaches of the West, and the depth, tenderness, and humour of the quirky souls who live there.

Foreword

'Vivid, tough, and funny. Wyoming has found
its Whitman.' Annie Dillard
