Synopsis: The Last Photograph will sweep you into the lives of two brothers coming of age in the American West of the 1960s. This is the story of the firstborn, Gordon, a tough and rebellious cowboy who loses his youth in Vietnam; of his brother Stephen, who reaches across the gulf between them after the war; and their unique father Griz, a rigid lumberjack- preacher who finally becomes their spiritual brother in a gripping and unforgettable climax. Here is a classic tale, dealing with rites of passage, shattering loss, and a whispered voice that completes the "unfinished business" between brothers. When a family hunting trip in the Idaho wilderness is proposed, Stephen hears a small voice in his heart telling him to restrain his competitive instincts and really look at his brother. As a writer and photographer, Stephen brings his unique gifts on the trail ride.
