On My Way to the Natural World (Center for American Places, 2005) “Reg Saner has outdone himself. To each of these forays he brings the eye of a skilled naturalist, the multi-layered memory of a scholar, and the deceptively clear style of a fine, fine writer who loves the American West and fears for its future.” --Anne Matthews, author of Where the Buffalo Roam Reaching Keet Seel:
Ruin’s Echo and the Anasazi (University of Utah Press, 1998) “A first-rate naturalist footloose in the ecology of surprise, Saner takes us on a hike into time to the ruins and rock art in the remote canyons of the Southwest in search of the sacred. No reader can ask more of a guide.” --Stephen Trimble, author/photographer of The People: Indians of the American Southwest The Four-Cornered Falcon: Essays on the Interior West and the Natural Scene
(Johns Hopkins University Press) “Reg Saner is a brilliant observer of the natural scene. His language is luminous and exciting; his idea have dramatic power. He is a poet of inner spaces as well, with the gift of moving the reader in unpredictable ways.” --Joyce Carol Oates |
