| Publisher Description: The settlers who came to Wyoming stayed to build a special way of life. It is with them that important choices now rest. The country where the wind blew in primeval purity will now breathe new odors, says author Larson, unless short-term profits can be balanced by long-term gains. If the right decisions are made, he concludes, it should be possible for Wyoming to emerge from its primitive isolation in such a way that its greatest values are preserved and its old way of life left for those who choose to follow it. |
