- Summary:
- The romance of the West is nowhere so compelling as in its irreplaceable architecture. A silvery log cabin perches at 12,000 feet. A steeple-topped chalet resides beside an alpine lake. From the Olympic Peninsula to the Grand Canyon, we discover faded dreams from the past. The culmination of a decade of research, LANDMARKS IN THE LANDSCAPE unveils this oft overlooked national treasure. Over 450 images.
