- Home to farmland and badlands, prairies and caves, and the treasured Black Hills, as well as such human-made wonders as Mt. Rushmore, the Corn Palace, and Wall Drug, South Dakota is a land of extraordinary variety. The state retains a strong connection to its wild and woolly history while inviting present-day explorers to seek out and enjoy its one-of-a-kind sights and experiences. In this collection of full-color images, photographer J. C. Leacock captures the striking diversity and rugged scenic beauty of this friendly central state.

| "I purchased this as a gift for my elderly father, a South Dakota native who is no longer able to focus on the written word. The beauty of the state he has always referred to as 'back home' comes to life for him each time opens the book--old memories come alive to him and I am hearing stories I've never before heard. This book exceeded all expectations."
-Katydid, amazon.com review "This is a wonderful South Dakota photography book. I've lived here my whole life, and it's just what I wanted. I was looking for something that was all photos and not much text--this is it. This is great for a coffee table book."
