Overview
First published almost fifty years ago and long out of print, The Shoshoneans is a classic American travelogue about the Great Basin and Plateau region and the people who inhabit it, never before--or since--documented in such striking and memorable fashion. Neither a book of journalism nor a work of poetry, this powerful collaboration represents the wild wandering of a white poet and black photographer in Civil Rights era (also Vietnam War era) America through a part of the indigenous West that had resisted prior incursions. The expanded edition offers a wealth of supplemental material, much of it archival, which includes poetry, correspondence, the lecture The Poet, the People, the Spirit, and the essay Ed Dorn in Santa Fe.The book, The Shoshoneans: The People of the Basin-Plateau, Expanded Edition (Recencies Series: Research and Recovery in Twentieth-Century American Poetics) [Bulk, Wholesale, Quantity] ISBN#9780826353818 in Paperback by Edward Dorn, Leroy Lucas may be ordered in bulk quantities.
