In twenty powerful pieces of writingessays, memoirs, short storiesthe state's finest contemporary writers explore the plains, rivers, and mountains of Big Sky Country. They show us how natural beauty and hardship are two sides of the same coin, and how sometimes the only way to cure heartache is to visit the great outdoors.From a hardscrabble upbringing to the pain of losing the family land, from death on a river to the awe of landing a big fish, from backcountry encounters with grizzly bears to an out-of-stater's happiness at making Montana her home, A Million Acres offers a wonderfully diverse range of experiences and perspectives. Framing these words are twenty-eight breathtaking photographs that render these open spaces in gorgeous color.Come to Montana: in words, in pictures, in person. And see what makes the Last Best Place worth saving.Contributors are:Rick BassMaile MeloyCarrie La SeurJoe WilkinsJim RobbinsGwen FlorioJamie HarrisonSterling HolyWhiteMountainJanet Skeslien CharlesMaxim LoskutoffChristine CarboJames Grady Alexis BonogofskyRussell RowlandCaroline PattersonKeir GraffEric HeidleLeDoux HansenAntonia MalchikAllen Morris Jones
