Gold Medal Winner, California Book Awards

Winner, NCIBA Book of the Year Award

Winner, Northern California Book Reviewers Recognition Award

A show-stopping collaboration between artist Tom Killion & poet Gary Snyder with writings by Robinson Jeffers, Robert Hass, Jaime de Angulo, and more.

Previously published as California’s Wild Edge: The Coast in Prints, Poetry, and History, this volume captures the beauty of the California coast from Mendocino, Point Reyes, and the San Francisco Bay down through Carmel, Big Sur, Santa Barbara, and Santa Monica. Woodcut artist Tom Killion’s prints (over 90 in this collection) combine exquisite color with dynamic composition to portray the coast’s ever-changing moods and diverse formations: storm tides crashing at Point Lobos, serene moonlit coves at Mendocino, fog encircling the Golden Gate Bridge. Deepening our experience are poetry and prose from Gary Snyder, as well as selections from Native Californian traditional stories, accounts of travelers, and poems by Robinson Jeffers, Robert Hass, and Jaime de Angulo. As Tamalpais Walking and The High Sierra of California did for lovers of mountains, California’s Wild Coast will delight anyone who has seen (or wants to see) the meeting of land and the Pacific.
