Description:
For twenty years, Dan O'Brien struggled to make a going concern of his ranch, the Broken Heart, nestled at the foot of South Dakota's Black Hills. Not until a chance encounter with a buffalo did he understand what the land called out for him to do: restore the grasslands by bringing these massive creatures back for the first time in more than a century and a half.
Expand description
This book illustrates the power of a dream and how life becomes infinitely richer when we dare to follow one. O'Brien combines his warm and candid account of seasons on his ranch with a short history of the buffalo, its near extinction, and its triumphant return to the Great Plains. Buffalo for the Broken Heart places him firmly in the canon of great writers on nature and the American West such as Gretel Ehrlich and Peter Matthiessen.
