The Sagebrush Ocean, the essential introduction to the ecology and spirit of the Great Basin Desert, returns in this richly updated 35th anniversary edition. Winner of the Ansel Adams Award for Photography and Conservation, Stephen Trimble's authoritative voice and evocative photographs illuminate this landscape of sun-struck playas, surprising wetlands, remote canyons, and wind-swept tundra.
Today, the once-vast "sagebrush ocean" is an endangered sea, as environmental changes and human development have diminished it by half. This heartbreaking decline drives Trimble's updated text, but he blends loss with reverence for what remains--and urgent insight into what's at stake. Striking color photographs, many newly added, illuminate some of the continent's most spectacular but little known scenery. For anyone curious about the Great Basin or concerned for its future, this timely edition is indispensable.
