The Beauty of Winter in the Wilderness

Tom Murphy's photographs and descriptive text make a perfect companion for anyone in love with the beauty of winter. Having been in Yellowstone in the winter, I truly appreciate the skill of this incredible photographer. Tom Murphy has spent endless hours photographing the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem and the photos that make it into his books are glorious. He is a naturalist as well and he takes you on a trip into the wilderness with his beautiful books.

Murphy is a genius

These books are amazing. His whole series is gorgeous. If you can't come to Yellowstone personally, you must see them. Even if you can, Murphy is getting photographs of things no one else can see! Just beautiful.

Great photograhic experience

Exactly what I hoped it would be - beautiful photographs. For someone who enjoys both Yellowstone and the winter season beauty, I recommend this book.

Breathtaking and beautiful

I've always loved Yellowstone in Winter. Since 20 years I fly from Germany to Montana to spend several freezing months each year in Yellowstone, because I'm under the spell!!! Reading this book and looking at the absolutely beautiful photos from Tom Murphy makes me want to jump into the next plane and fly to the land of fire and ice.There are a lot of books out there about Yellowstone, but nothing captures more the magic of silence and solitude than this one.

Yellowstone' great resident photographer strikes gold

It has been my pleasure to know Tom Murphy for almost a decade. From the time I first saw his work, I knew I was in the presence of a consummate artist who thoroughly knew his subject. Silence & Solitude will finally allow the rest of the world to see the beauty and power of a Yellowstone winter through his eyes. It is poignant, passionate and highly literate in its narration. Enjoy!
