About This Item
Silver City, NM High Lonesome Books, June 1993. Paperback First Ed thus, so stated. Fine in Wraps: binding square and secure; text clean. Virtually 'As New'. NOT a Remainder, Book-Club, or Ex-Library. 8vo. 333pp. Illustrated by Peter Hurd. First Ed thus, so stated. Paperback. Sky, says Ross Calvin, determines everything in the Southwest: weather, landscape, plant and animal forms, human types, even art and architecture, religious rites and manner of dress.... Altogether this is an authentic book, valuable as an introduction to a region of strange beauty and as an exposition of some little understood aspects of our history. Sky Determines has become a regional classic. In this revised Third Edition, the author has renewed the book with fifty pages of fresh materials, drawn from decades of observing the Southwest.
