Imaginary friends, an old Mexican ghost story, haunting landscapes and a road trip with Louis L'Amour and Zane Grey. These are some of the tales you will encounter in this collection of short stories, poems and essays written by two award-winning authors. Some are funny, others are sad. But every story comes from the heart of the Snake River Plain. "This book is a small treasure...in Voices from the Snake River Plain we learn there is beauty in the landscape around us and people with stories to tell. And much to learn from both." Diane Josephy Peavey, author of Bitterbrush Country: Living on the Edge of the Land
