From the author of The Hidden West comes a remarkable new collection of essays on America's last great frontiers. Telluride, Colorado, is a seven-hour drive from Denver and in the heart of the Four... This description may be from another edition of this product.
Rob Schultheis takes the reader on a breathtaking adventure in the Telluride mountains and Four Corners surrounds. His writing is almost surrealistic at times, giving you sounds, sights, smells and touch in playful, yet serious prose/poetry. The book is a delight. The trip he and his wife took down the San Juan is enough of an ordeal so that after the reader goes along for the ride, he or she is grateful not to really have to make that trip - but you're glad they did. It was a joy each night to pick up Fool's Gold and enter Rob's reality, whether fanciful and fun or hard or cold. You don't have to have been to Telluride to appreciate this magical book, but if you have, it will give you a whole new vision of this "little mining town in the west." Highly recommended.
