The desert; further studies in natural appearances by
John Charles Van Dyke(
Book
)
56 editions published between 1901 and 2011 in English and Undetermined and held by 795 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
"Since its first appearance in 1901, John C. Van Dyke's The Desert has been considered one of the classics of American nature writing. Before its publication, Americans thought of deserts as scorpion-infested wastelands - with names like Devil's Domain and the Lands That God Forgot. All this changed as The Desert drew attention to the extraordinary beauty that existed in the American West: rolling sand dunes, golden vistas, vibrant sunsets, and remarkable plant and animal life. Van Dyke's book captured the nation's imagination at a time when attitudes about the land were changing. It provided a vocabulary that continues to be used as appreciation of deserts increases and ever greater pressures lead to new calls to protect these fragile environments." "With a critical introduction by Peter Wild, this edition offers new insights - and reveals some surprising truths - about this legendary author and his best known work."--BOOK JACKET
