Different cover sent than pictured!
I wish I was sent the proper book. My dad is a lonesome dove addict and saw this book of pictures and loved it. Specifically the cover pictured of the man in the rocking chair. He wasn't as thrilled with this rendition that I was sent. Unfortunately I can't get in touch with anyone at Amazon who cares enough to fix it.

I’ve been a huge fan of Lonesome Dove ever since I first saw the series on CBS in 1989. I’ve watched it at least a dozen times since. Can’t get enough of it. Greatest western ever filmed!

The book is no longer in print. This copy was like new and shipped very promptly and was well packaged, so vendor was great. I saw the Lonesome Dove exhibit at Booth Museum of Western Art in Cartersville Georgia. The photos were taken by the producer of the TV mini series during the production for his own pleasure. While Mr. Witliff is no longer with us, his legacy lives on at his gallery. I love these gorgeous photos; they are stunning works of art in their own right. I am thrilled to own this book as I am both a photographer and an artist.

This is the SECOND of this book that I’ve bought over the years. I bought one for myself for a coffee table book years ago and absolutely loved it. The photography is beautiful. The book is thick and heavy, great quality. I bought this copy as a gift and I am sure they will love it as much as I have.

A BEAUTIFUL look back at the best western ever made! The black and white photographs are stunning... purchased this as a 44th Anniversary gift for my husband...he was so pleased. One of a series of only 5,000 printed. A special gift for a special man!

This book is just gorgeous! If you are a huge fan of the book and/or the movie as I am, you really need this book because Bill Witliff is a tremendous photographer, capturing the heart of Larry McMurtry’s masterpiece Lonesome Dove. If you only have one “coffee table” book, make it this one.
