Bestselling novelist and nature writer Rick Bass says "Steve Gorman's photographs come as close as is possible, other than actually being in the woods, to giving us glimpses, tastes, odors, sounds, and touches of the spirit and being of these places."
Bestselling author Dan Brown says, "Steve Gorman's masterful images offer tantalizing clues into the nature of our national character and our capricious relationship with the natural world. His work deftly inscribes our beliefs, our dreams, and our American story in an accessible and eye opening way."
America's preeminent science writer David Quammen says, "Stephen Gorman's American Wilderness is a collection of vividly particular locales in which history itself adds to the meaning, the genius loci, and the charm."
Audubon Magazine editor-in-chief Lisa Gosselin agrees, saying, "Stephen Gorman is an explorer who delves into the natural and social histories of the lands he visits, uncovering the soul of wilderness that drew our first pioneers and reinforcing the ethic of conservation that has kept America wild."
