réf. B9780804010474Paperback / softback. New. The Wild Earth's Nobility is the first of Frank Waters's semiautobiographical novels in the Pikes Peak saga. Here in a frontier town in the shadow of the commanding mountain the Rogier family settles near an age-old route of migrating Native Americans. In an era of prospecting silver strikes and frenzied mining Joseph Rogier becomes a successful building contractor rears a large family and is gradually overwhelmed by the power of the great peak. In Waters's visionary prose the story becomes a mythic journey to reconcile instinct and reason consciousness and intuition and the powerful emotions of a family struggling with its own dreams and human limitations. Frank Waters 1902-1995 one of the finest chroniclers of the American Southwest wrote twenty-eight works of fiction and nonfiction. Of Pike's Peak 1971 the Chicago Daily News wrote "It is a product of maturity written with a sustained strength and beauty of style rarely found in fiction today." Pike's Peak is composed of three condensed novels: The Wild Earth's Nobility Below Grass Roots and The Dust within the Rock. paperback
