“I found that I was no longer looking for abuse of the prairie. Instead, I was simply trying to read its stories from the facts of the landscape. I saw a small, carefully tended cemetery in the middle of a wheat field, and carefully nurtured farms, along with land mined on top for wheat and underneath for oil.”

Terry Evans, Preface, The Inhabited Prairie, 1998
