Von der hinteren Coverseite

Coyote Nowhere - a phrase taken from Jack Kerouac s On the Road - explores and examines the northern high plains through John Holt s words and Ginny Diers s photographs. The northern high plains roll east from the base of the Rocky Mountains like still-life waves for hundreds of miles. From the Canadian Northwest down through Montana and into Wyoming, the sparsely populated country drifts off eternally. Isolated pockets of mountains rise thousands of feet above what was once an ancient seabed and home to dinosaurs. Millions of acres of native grass buffet back and forth in the wind or bake under a wicked sun. Yet, despite all this space, threats to the country rain down in the form of strip mining, oil exploration, and logging, to name a few.
The story begins in late spring in Livingston, Montana, and describes a loop that courses down through Wyoming, back into Montana, crosses the border into Alberta, Canada, and heads farther north before winding up back in Livingston as winter closes in. Follow Holt and Diers as they camp, fish, hang out in cowboy bars, dodge careening oil-rig semis, meet their fair share of law enforcement officials, and sink even further into the country that has such a firm hold on them.
