Her girlhood chores--hauling water and rounding up cattle--were remote even to her town-bred classmates in the forties and fifties. It was a girlhood she now recalls realistically, with affection but without nostalgia.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eMany others have written about this land, its people, and its history, and Blew examines portrayals of the West in some of their writing, including B. M. Bower's Chip of the Flying U and the novels of Dorothy M. Johnson and A. B. Guthrie, Jr. Always her discussions are permeated with landscape and memory.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eHer essays interlock nature writing, autobiography, literary criticism, and history in a collection that reflects a woman's life in the Rocky Mountain West. Blew immerses readers in a landscape of mountains and prairies, blizzards and scorching sun, and in a regional history in which Indians lose the landscape to white settlers, who find the living tough.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBone Deep in Landscape demonstrates Mary Clearman Blew's commitments to place as a source of knowing and to living consciously--as writer, mother, scholar, and western woman.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mary Clearman Blew\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0806132701\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780806132709\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Oklahoma Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/15\/2000\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.58lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.48h x 5.38w x 0.63d","brand":"Mary Clearman Blew","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43926249865471,"sku":"9780806132709","price":9.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_fb8a2309-7685-4985-b92d-55c760c4f3c1.jpg?v=1681082029","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/bone-deep-in-landscape-volume-mary-clearman-blew-9780806132709","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
