Langmore began cowboying in 1975 at the age of 12, the same year that his father, Bank Langmore, published the preeminent photo book \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eThe Cowboy\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e. John spent 12 summers working across the west before transitioning to a more regulatory career. Then, in 2012, John began a six-year project photographing 14 of the nation’s largest and most famous ranches in Nevada, Arizona, Texas, Nebraska, New Mexico, Oregon, Montana and Wyoming. Of all those who have photographed the American cowboy, John is one of the few who came to it first as a colleague and then as a photographer. This large landscape book features 90 tritone plates along with Langmore’s own poetic recollections of working as a cowboy. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eOpen Range\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e offers an unrivaled chance to witness a way of life that many dream of, but few experience.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003eJohn Langmore\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e (born 1962) is the son of photographer Bank Langmore.
