In 1976, seven young, ambitious photographers visited every place on the map of North Dakota. The result was a collection of 10,000 black-and-white photographs, many of which were presented to the State Historical Society. Now 120 of the best photographs are reproduced in this book. Poignant, humorous, inspiring, these photographs capture a state that no one ever truly leaves.
The book opens with an excerpt, "The Street," from Beyond the Bedroom Wall, Larry Woiwode's novel set in a small town in North Dakota. Then follows more than 100 pages of beautifully reproduced, large photographs. This book is a gift that will please anyone with North Dakota ties.
