Book
Description
Riverbend Publishing is pleased to be distributing “The Abundance of Summer” which is Tom Murphy’s fourth and final installment in his remarkable series of photographic essays that follow the turning of the seasons in Yellowstone National Park. In this stunning book, Murphy captures the essence of summer’s whimsy and wonder. A robin fledgling naps in the sun, swan cygnets dabble in the water, flowers erupt into glory—while at the same time lightning flashes on the horizon, thunderstorms rumble across the valley, and forest fires run before the wind. In this dazzling collection of marvel and might, Tom Murphy showcases all that makes Yellowstone a place of passion, peace, and power.
