Why do we feel such powerful connections to the places we call home? And what is it about the American West that captures our imagination and shapes our sense of who we are?
In this episode, we speak with Dr. Mark Fiege, retired professor of history and western American studies, about the profound relationship between people and place. We explore how our attachments to particular landscapes develop, whether farmers and ranchers experience a deeper connection to the land, and how the geography of the American West continues to influence our understanding of ourselves as a nation.
Join us for a thought-provoking conversation about the power of place, our relationship with the land and the enduring influence of the American West on the American identity.
