A dauntingly large book.
It only took 2 chapters to get me hooked.
The style of writing is long, but not long winded. It's a long story, with epic and sweeping scenery, so the style is quite fitting.
Definitely takes a commitment though, but the effort is rewarded with beautiful prose that takes you thru forgotten cultures and places... so far.

This is a long term project.
Really great read that is a treasure of information.
I bought this book back in 2006, on a trip to Yosemite, at the Ansel Adams studio in the valley.
It's been on my shelf ever since, and gets read about a page a sitting. The names are mostly familiar, and the dates and achievements are fascinating to slowly disseminate into my knowledge of things.

this book helped save my relationship

total burn out rather than fade away.
