Dust jacket:
Ten years ago Fred Harman brought his long and varied career as a Western artist to fruition when he began to devote himself exclusively to serious oil painting. Harman has divided his life between his work as a rancher and cowpuncher and his work as an illustrator and cartoonist. In his paintings, he brings all he has learned to bear: they have a photographic realism conveyed with stern lines and brilliant coloration. There is no mistaking Harman's wealth of personal experience in the West with both white man and red man. He is...sympathetic with them and even more fundamentally sympathetic with the...that supports them. He also has a historian's eye for detail and a novelist's feeling for mood. In his paintings, Harman is concerned above all with the vitality of the land and the only tribute possible is that he makes the land alive again for those who share his feelings toward the West.
