About Field Notes from Yosemite: Apprentice to Place:

“Field Notes from Yosemite is [Jordan's] apprenticeship in watercolors and text to rock, tree, and glacier – her small homage to that singular place.

About Cowgirls: Women of the American West:

"Jordan's book celebrates the pluck and grit of these overlooked women. Reading about them is as easy as their work is hard." – Washington Post

About Teresa's Storytelling:

"Teresa Jordan’s storytelling tests the depths of ordinary experience and discovers its secret worth. She captivates without flourish or fanfare, giving the sense of a story happening rather than being told, stringing a subtle web-work in which the listener, not knowing for sure how she did it, finds himself happily caught up. Teresa’s is one of the principal voices defining the new oral tradition of the American West." —John Daniel, author of The Far Corner: Northwestern Views on Land, Life, and Literature
