“Harold Rhenisch, from 108 Mile Ranch in the high Cariboo Plateau of B.C., is imbued with a unique vision of the land and its feral creatures. This rancher, bard and magician, worships the sacred ecology of the land from the trout leaping in the swift-running green rivers and the reflective blue mountain lakes to the clattering swaths of locusts which devour his fields of wild sorghum. Everything on the ranch provides Rhenisch’s muse with intellectual fever to create an ongoing painterly agricultural vision. Just don’t make the mistake of putting Rhenisch in the same corral with the other cowboys at the annual poetry rodeo – he’s on an infinitely higher plateau than the grazing herd.” —Joe Rosenblatt
