Where The Sky Began: Land of the Tallgrass Prairie… por John Madson
This book is a rare combination of informed and informative writing with lyrical, poetic descriptions that create an unforgettable sense of place. If you have any feeling for the natural world, reading this book will change you, change your outlook not just on tallgrass prairies, but on man's place in and impact on the natural world.

wonderful wonderful peaen to the prairie. if you want to know more about the seemingly unending uneventful uninteresting prairie read thsi book.
George was my first-year printmaking professor in college. He is a wonderful (sarcastic!) man and an amazing artist. When I found out he had a book out, I had to have it, and it does not disappoint. Beautiful!
