Visibility ten miles : a prairie memoir in photography and poetry / by Ken Smith and Sharon Chmielarz. - First edition. - xiv, 83 pages : illustrations ; 18 x 26 cm

Visibility: Ten Miles is a collaboration between poet Sharon Chmielarz and photographer Ken Smith. Both are well acquainted with the prairie; hence these photos and poems include not only grasslands but also the unusual only insiders have seen. These images come from two angles, what the eye sees and what the heart responds to. The title suggests the ability on the prairie to see in distances of miles, not of city blocks or minutes. Here it can suggest something more lies ahead which is unseen. And that is what this book brings to the reader -- what might be unseen or unremembered or not yet imagined to the eye.
