Publisher's Synopsis
The Loess Hills, formed over millenia by windblown topsoil from the Missouri River plains, exist in only one other place on earth. Their presence inspires us, representing the interplay of strength and fragility, growth and decline. The Loess Hills came about because of topsoil. The Loess Hills Project came about because two friends traveled by car through the hills one summer day, and lent their talents for words and pictures to share their journey and the beauty of this unique geological feature as well as that summer day.
