An up-close look at the remarkable, distinctive bison and its cultural significance in the American West.

The first book of its kind, Bison: Portrait of an Icon tells the story of the bison--its history, majesty, cultural significance, and comeback story--through the stunning, dramatic photography of Audrey Hall. Even more, woven throughout these visually captivating photographs is an extended essay by author Chase Reynolds Ewald. Brought back from the brink of extinction, the bison today--with its rugged, primitive build, its remarkable speed and hardiness, its primeval wooly hide, and its sheer strength--is an icon as distinctly American as the bald eagle.

Editorial Reviews

"As its title suggests, this book centers on images, and what wonderful images they are. The photos--of buffalo young and old, in herds and solitary, close up and from afar, under big skies, in the snow, behind fences, in front of mountains--speak loudly for themselves. There are no captions. But, yes, there are interesting items to read among the visual treats ...."-- "The HistoryNet" (12/1/2021 12:00:00 AM)
