Book Description: Above Tahoe and Reno. A unique combination of natural beauty and the handiwork of man. I am accustomed to looking down on the highrise canyons of New York or Chicago, or across the vast sweep of architecture in Paris or London or Washington. And even Yosemite and Hawaii do not present the challenge that faced me with the pristine elegance of this area. The problem was to capture its diversity. With the aid of Warren LeRude and Perry Di Loreto, I was able to present a new picture of one of the most beautiful lakes in the world and its relation to the bustling desert city, Reno.
