Texas Rangeland (Advisory Council supported book)

the long version

"Burton Pritzker has sojourned in the Texas of dreams and brought it all back in these black-and-white photographs. In making pictures of those most Texan of icons - cows, bulls, and steers - Pritzker captures whole moments in time and place with all their play of forms, textures, and light. In his cattle, you'll find sweetness, fragility, bravado, strength, and monumentality - the underlying essence of Texas itself. Accompanying the photos is a running commentary that blends the voices of many Texans looking at the images into a single voice telling stories of ranch life, of working with cattle, and of learning to see the realm of dreams in the everyday world around us."--BOOK JACKET.
