Smith, Inc., Peregrine Smith Books, Salt Lake City, Utah, c. 1987, First Edition, ISBN 0-87905-282-1, 146 pp., 9 x 12 inches, hard cover with dust jacket. "A Fragile Beauty is a joyful summing up, in words and photographs, of John Nichols' life in New Mexico, and of his writings since 1969. The book is a rich tapestry of his artistic, spiritual, and political evolution in a lovely but fragile land." ... "That exuberant summer made inevitable Nichol's return to New Mexico 12 years later. But by then it was in the middle of the Vietnam War, and he brought with him a heightened political and cultural awareness. Almost immediately, he began to work for a muckraking journal called The New Mexico Review, and he details here the early stories, political struggles, and personalities that inspired books like the Milagro Beanfield War, The Magic Journey, and If Mountains Die." Extensively illustrated, mostly with color photographs. In very good condition.
