Iowa: Simply Beautiful
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
The title says it all! I have lived here my entire life and every picture sent waves of wonderful memories. Our young friend took it with her to Fiji as a gift for her college home-stay family. I knew I had to send a copy to my dear friend who was born & raised in Puerto Rico; got her second masters at Drake University in Des Moines, Iowa; returned to PR after graduation. She fell in love with Iowa and wants to "move home" some day. I have sent her many books about Iowa but she had a particular reaction to this one - as I knew she would. She said I was "the best of friends and the worst of friends" for sending this book - it helped her home-sickness but it made her cry. She pours over the book with her family. I would recommend this to ANYONE with an Iowa connection - the photography is stunning and the memories it invokes are precious.
There's no better capture of Iowa and Iowans

Extraordinary photos of variety of landscape in Iowa
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
The photographs in this book are extraordinary - pictures that represent the real beauty of the state of Iowa. The landscape varies from the 500 foot bluffs over the Mississippi River, tall hills and deep valleys, beautiful autumn colors; to the expected rolling hills of Grant Wood and the big sky over the prairies of tall grass. There is so much variety in Iowa, which this book captures in color-saturated photographs. My only consideration is I wish that there was more description of the places which are pictured. Photographs are either identified briefly by their titles, or not at all.
