About 10,000 people inhabit this high desert area, geographically larger than the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Natives, settlers and miners battled for control of the Owyhees during the Nineteenth Century. Today Owyhee Country contains some of the most spectacular, pristine canyonlands in the United States. Mark Lisk is a nationally-recognized outdoor photographer. He is author or contributor to several books dealing with Idaho's natural beauty, including Salmon River Country, published by Caxton Press. Mark's photographs of the Owyhees, presented with essays written by people who love the region, create a book in the tradition of Caxton award winners like Steens Mountain and Snake River Country. |
