The Bloomsbury Review, July/August, 2001 said: "In language stuffed with imagery and trussed together with startling similes, Marwitz writes naturally and beautifully..." From the Author-Naming The Winds: A High Plains Apprenticeship is a book of non-fiction essays arranged around the seasons of the southern Wyoming high plains. It tells the story of an elderly woman I knew as a child, growing up at the edge of Laramie, Wyoming, in the 1970's. She was strong-willed and fiercely independent, with a love for the wind-scoured plains around Laramie matched only by her great knowledge of this rough environment. The book details my "apprenticeship" with her as I learned about the natural history of a place whose harsh beauty is not often appreciated. The book weaves stories of the past with seasonal images of the present, as twenty-five years later, I return to Laramie, now a mother of three, and search for my favorite place on the high plains northeast of town. Development, even in this small town, has overrun the vast "prairie" I once roamed with my dog. What I discover is not what I had sought. . Very Good. Paperback.

Trade Paperback, Like New, Biography, A story of a May-December friendship between a lively, free-thinking adolescent and an eccentric, high-spirited woman. Growing up on the edge of Laramie, Caroline Marwitz felt lost among the housing tracts that were swallowing up the prairie she loved. But she found her compass in a woman her grandmother's age who taught her about courage and curiosity. Through this friendship, forged on the Wyoming winds, she looks closely at where she lives, its natural and human history, and earns the right to call it home., [PU: High Plains Press]<
