Dana Fritz is Hixson-Lied Professor of Art and Center for Great Plains Studies Fellow at the University of Nebraska–Lincoln. She is the author of Terraria Gigantica: The World under Glass.
As we consider ways to mitigate climate change and to remember our connection and responsibility to nature, this book is important. Afforestation's history in the Nebraska Sandhills is an informative, fascinating, and useful story. What I like best about this book is the combination of art, science, history, and geography, which belong together anyway, but seldom are as smoothly integrated as in Dana Fritz's work here. --Terry Evans, photographer and author of Prairie Stories and Heartland: The Photographs of Terry Evans
