520 "I have talked about luscious wines and succulent fruit
and exquisite dinners. But there may be no more evocative
experience of the two valleys than the smell of new-mown
hay in the fields at dusk. If a person were to close their
eyes, they could not tell if they were in Provence or the
North Fork Valley. That sweet, earthy odor is part of the
beauty of these places."--An American Provence In this
poetic personal narrative, Thomas P. Huber reflects on two
seemingly unrelated places-the North Fork Valley in
western Colorado and the Coulon River Valley in Provence,
France-and finds a shared landscape and sense of place.
What began as a simple comparison of two like places in
distant locations turned into a more complex, interesting,
and personal task. Much is similar-the light, the valleys,
the climate, the agriculture. And much is less so-the
history, the geology, the physical makeup of villages.
Using a geographer's eye and passion for the land and
people, Huber examines the regions' similarities and
differences to explore the common emotional impact of each
region. Part intimate travelogue and part case study of
geography in the real world, An American Provence
illuminates the importance sense of place plays in who we
are.
