The Introduction by Christine Mollring, owner of Trailside Galleries from 1971 to 1994, reminiscences about gallery life and Veryl’s early career. Western history enthusiasts will find a treasure of little known facts about the lives of Colonel Charles and Mary Ann Goodnight in the essay by B. Byron Price. Roger Brooks, Veryl’s husband relives the saga and challenges of placing “The Day The Wall Came Down,” a seven-ton monument to freedom in Berlin, Germany and at the George H. W. Bush Presidential Library.
“The book you hold in your hands is the honest and open story of Veryl Goodnight’s journey as a person and as an artist. One should contemplate, however, not just how her work has grown and developed over the years. The personal story since the early 1970s runs in concert with pivotal years in the story of the field of Western art itself.”
