Description

Open these pages and encounter the charm and character of one of our nations most beautiful states. Venture with celebrated photographer George Ostertag into the heart of Oregon to find the signature qualities that make this state unique. In photo after photo, Ostertag explores Oregons riches, from sea level to mountain high. He discovers the idyllic and the austere, the homespun and the cosmopolitan in the ever-changing canvas that is Oregon.

From the snowy peaks of the Cascade Range to the cliffs and dunes along the coast, from the stark High Desert to the lush Willamette Valley, and from Pendletons Wild West rodeos to Portlands urban core--this is Oregon in all its historical, cultural, and natural splendor.

About the Author

George Ostertag has been exploring Oregon and the Pacific Northwest for more than twenty years, uncovering the region’s prized haunts and raptures. As a professional nature and travel photographer, he has worked independently and in collaboration with his author-wife, Rhonda, to produce numerous books and articles. They settled in the Northwest for its outdoor ethic and its great diversity: mountains, ocean, deserts, valleys, rural heartlands, and cutting-edge cities. With such variety, Ostertag’s shutter is seldom still. He is out in all kinds of weather and up before the first break of light.

            George has collaborated on nearly twenty guidebooks and hundreds of articles. His photography commonly pops up in calendar pages and postcard racks. His most recent title is Voyageur Press’ Backroads of Oregon (2005).
