Review
...a stunning photographic collection that celebrates the reality of ranch life.....Krantz approaches her subjects from a place of listening and learning in order to better understand the diversity of people she photographs. For Krantz, this approach is an important step toward breaking down divides and building community.-- "Big Sky Journal"
Anouk Masson Krantz has done what few have been able to. She has portrayed a culture so misrepresented in movies, books, and TV shows that it's nearly impossible to know how a cowboy's or rancher's life looks today.-- "American Trails"

The bestselling book Ranchland: Wagonhound, by the French photographer Anouk Krantz, celebrates the cowboy culture of the United States and in particular Wagonhound, one of its largest historic working ranches-- "The London Times"
