He did it all--from capturing the splendor of Yellowstone to making portraits of people who lived and worked around the Cody area. Many of the photos he took of my grandparents are lost; but the surviving images are amazing. In this book; Wyoming Journalist Bark Bagne takes us behind Richards camera and allows us a glimpse into his life and love as a photographer. Bagne; who honed his skills at the Wyoming Tribune Eagle and Cody Enterprise during the past two decades; is a perfect match for the story. Anyone who has a love for photography or Wyoming will cherish this book.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Photos and text capture changing American WestBy Laurie QuadeThis photo book captures the changing American West landscape and its people with remarkable artistry. The black and white photos show tremendous depth and clarity. The aerial photos give the reader a glimpse of landscape most people never see; and Jack Richards ability to capture details on land and sky make him a true artist behind the camera lens. The text flows beautifully and unobtrusively throughout the book; adding wonderful insight to the photos and into the life of the photographer. This book is a must have! Move over Ansel Adams!0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. My God! Its awesome!By Elizabeth G. JonesA couple of good friends of mine recommended this book to me. I cant thank them enough for bringing the art of Jack Richard to my attention. The book is wonderfully put together - the selected photos included provide a great introduction to the art of Jack Richard while the text gives you an understanding of what the Yellowstone Country must have meant to the artist. I hope that the authors are hard at work on a second well deserved tribute to the art of Jack Richard!
