Wild Visions examines the shifting cultural perceptions of the American landscape through a synthesis of evocative photography and philosophical inquiry. Ben A. Minteer investigates how visual representations of nature have shaped conservation ethics and the human-nature relationship, tracing the evolution of wilderness as both a physical space and a symbolic construct in the American imagination.
