Pronghorn, the American Antelope, a figure of peerless grace, speed, and delicate beauty that iconizes the rugged vastness of the Great Plains as well as the High Desert steppes of the Continental Divide.

In his latest book, Sam Watson captures the aboriginal beauty of the Pronghorn as an intrinsic feature of the powerful landscape of America's doorways to the West.

Whether through history, literature, movies, or oral tales of the great human journeys associated with the becoming of the United States as a nation, it is somewhat quizzical the Pronghorn has been much overlooked as a symbol associated with Native and Pioneer America.

This photographic homage to the American Antelope represents a remedial attempt to restore its presence in American consciousness.
