The West’s austere natural beauty, complexity and amazingly varied landscape are inspiring. “In The West, Nothing New,” speaks to the early frontier land the idealized cowboys drove their dusty herds westward on towards Indian warfare, racism and the selfish exploitation of natural resources. Presently, our land is now drying up, in danger of becoming infertile and inhabitable. Our new frontier is one of insecurity, of human want and fear in America.
