BOOK COMING MARCH 10, 2026!
A powerful portrait collection of over 25 extraordinary Wyoming women whose lives, work, and personal stories embody the strength, spirit, and soul of the modern American West.
Photographer and podcaster Lindsay Linton Buk crisscrossed the Cowboy State to document a diverse group of trailblazing women—from an Eastern Shoshone language preservationist to a backcountry pilot, an abstract painter to a Supreme Court justice. Their stories, paired with striking portraits, celebrate identity, resilience, and purpose.
Based on the acclaimed podcast and museum exhibition, this visually rich book brings their voices to the page and invites readers to see the West—and themselves—through a new lens.
