Book excerpt: To photographer Chuck Haney, the badlands of North America's high plains are a photographer's paradise and spiritual places that touch the soul. In these striking, arid landscapes, the only constant is change and erosion is king. Here, water and wind are nature's artists and historians, sculpting haunting landforms of sandstone and clay, and recounting the land's prehistory in layers of ancient sediments studded with fossils and bones.

Packed with 83 striking color photographs, Badlands Impressions truly captures the rugged terrain of these harsh and beautiful landscapes. In a journey spanning multiple states, including Kansas, Montana, Nebraska and North and South Dakota, Badlands Impressions will transport readers to the very best scenery our Badlands have to offer. Highlights include visits to Badlands National Park, Makoshika State Park in Montana, Little Missouri National Grasslands, Theodore Roosevelt National Park - and that's just the start!

Download or read book Tony Wheeler s Bad Lands written by Tony Wheeler and published by Lonely Planet. This book was released on 2011-04-01 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lonely Planet: The world's leading travel guide publisher* A tourist on the Axis of Evil. 'You guys really are the axis of evil', our guide splutters over his stein of beer in the Pyongyang duck restaurant. 'You're always leaning out of the windows and taking photographs when I tell you not to.' In an age of plastic knives on planes, Tony Wheeler can make the extraordinary claim of having visited all the rogue countries currently on newsreaders' lips. Bad Lands is a witty first-hand account of his travels through places often perceived as having some of the most repressive and dangerous regimes in the world: Afghanistan, Albania, Burma, Cuba, Iran, Iraq, Libya, North Korea and Saudi Arabia. Taking into account each country's attitude to human rights, terrorism and foreign policy, he asks 'what makes a country truly evil?' and 'how bad is really bad?' - all the while engaging with a colourful cast of locals and hapless tour guides, ruminating on history and debunking popular myths. Written by the founder of Lonely Planet, this fascinating account of life in these closed-off countries will appeal to anyone with an interest in the state of the world today. With additional excursions to places that are slightly misguided, mildly malevolent, seriously off course, extraordinarily reclusive and much misunderstood. The second version of this popular title is well worth a read!

Download or read book The Diaries of a Bonedigger written by Harold Rogers Wanless and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-03-31 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through the original writings and photography of renowned geologist Harold Rollin Wanless, this book paints a thorough and engaging picture of the White River Badlands’ landscape, geology, biology, pioneer settlers, and how life was lived 100 years ago in a harsh, challenging, remote setting. In the summer of 1920, Harold Rollin Wanless, fresh from an undergraduate geology degree at Princeton, spent the first of three summers in the Badlands of South Dakota camping, hiking, and collecting fossil vertebrate skulls. Harold produced a fascinating and thorough diary and report, illustrated with over 100 image plates, in which he explains the geology, biology, and climate of this famous area. Wanless became deeply involved with and vividly records the life, hopes, trials and character of the new homesteading pioneers of the area, and the people and livelihoods he encountered are reflected in the diary as well. This is an engaging look at the history, environment, people and geological character of a unique portion of the American West. Combining a first-hand look at the White River Badlands and its people a century ago with the fossil history contained in its Cenozoic sediments gives a well-rounded historical presentation. This diary was found, compiled, and edited by Drs. Harold Rogers Wanless (the diarist’s son and an accomplished geologist himself) and Emmett Evanoff. In the introductory and concluding chapters of this book, they provide a broader perspective of Harold Rollin Wanless’s life and his significant achievements beyond the Badlands venture described here. In addition, this narrative - written “only” a century ago - provides a stark contrast with how we travel, communicate, conduct research and survive today, yet shows that human curiosity and kindnesses have not changed.
