'In a few years. . . the area’s ruin would be test.mes nt to a bargain we had tried to strike. The pictures record what we purchased, what we paid and what we could not buy. They document a separation from ourselves, and in turn from the natural world that we professed to love.'

– Robert Adams, What We Bought (New Haven, 2009)
