Home is one of the things Montana represents for this writer--along with bighorn sheep, the legacy of the Nez Perce, the ritual of fence building and much more. This description may be from another edition of this product.
For anyone who has ever been to southwestern Montana and immediately fell in love with it, this book is for you. Written from a woman's point of view, filled with humor, reverence, and awe, Ruth seemed to capture in words every emotion that I felt but couldn't articulate when I first hiked the beautiful Bitterroot Valley and the Big Sky areas of Montana (especially the never-ending fear of encountering a grizzy). I have read and re-read the book many times and have given copies to my friends to help them understand why I was captivated by Montana, its beauty and its people. And when I read it, I am immediately taken back there, far away from the realities of living in the suburbs of Washington, D.C.
