A Bank Close to the Clouds
Hinsdale County, Colorado is up close to the clouds where sun and snow interchange and know no seasons. 621-thousand square miles, a mile and a half high. It is one of the largest, least populated counties in the country. Only 400 people live here. But this day, they are reopening a bank that has been closed for 69 years.
Trespassing on their own land
Carrie Dann lives out where clouds leave only shadows on the earth. Her people remember bone gray better than rainbows. But they have clung to that land for tens of thousands of years. Now the federal government says they are trespassing.
Mississippi River Essay
The Mississippi River meanders down the spine of America. Stretched straight, it would spread from New York City to Los Angeles. But it winds back on itself in great chocolate loops. Mae West was right. “The loveliest distance between two points is a curved line.”
“These are remarkable and poignant stories that need to be told.”
KEN BURNS
“Those of us who know and work with Bob Dotson stand in awe of his gifts as a writer. Like the work so many viewers have come to love on NBC, this collection of stories captivates and inspires.”
- SAVANNAH GUTHRIE
“Throughout his remarkable career Bob Dotson has searched for the real essence of America – not by interviewing the so-called famous but by seeking out those unnoticed people we pass by every day. Dotson is a national treasure for caring enough to listen.”
- MEREDITH VIERA
