Gives readers a sampling of the history,
people, places, and events that shaped
my home state of Wyoming. As I said
in the introduction to the book, "High
atop America is a place so rugged
and wild it grabs your heart and
spirit and soul: Wyoming, land of
the cowboy. The state is a sensation
of endless space and unchanged
time. Standing atop a granite boulder
in the Rocky Mountains, you may feel
trammeled and untamed. Wyoming has lots of elbow room
and not much to obstruct the view. Its immensity is matched
only by its diversity: Rock-strewn mountains, rolling plains,
windswept deserts and pastoral valleys. In every region
of the state you can climb to the top of a high peak, spin
your gaze like a top, and see nothing but land, rocks and
sagebrush--just as it might have looked when the first
people came to this country. In Wyoming your spirit can
soar with the eagles and race with the wild horses of
the Pryor Mountains or the Red Desert." This book won
first place nonfiction history book awards from both
Wyoming Media Professionals and the National
Federation of Press Women in 1996. It is published
