We can refresh ourselves with our own best image, and renew our image of America: not as Perfection, not as Heaven on Earth, not as New Jerusalem, but as flawed glory and exhilarating task.' -from The Twilight of Self-Reliance: Frontier Values and Contemporary America
The occasions of the centennial of Wallace Stegner s birth on February 18, 1909, and the University of Utah Press s announcement of the Wallace Stegner Publication Prize in Environmental and American Western History have provided the impetus for the re-publication of 'The Twilight of Self-Reliance: Frontier Values and Contemporary America, ' which was originally delivered as a Tanner Lecture at the University of Utah on February 25, 1980."
