The title of Jane Hilton's exhibition and book refers to her discovery of a dead Golden Eagle in the middle of the road in Nevada. The experience inspired her to document and explore one of the most iconic, romantic archetypes of American culture and history, the cowboy and his way of life.

Dead Eagle Trail marks Hilton’s empathetic portrayal of the cowboy of the twenty first century. Hilton’s subjects are photographed within their own personal environments, surrounded by their
collections of artifacts and memorabilia.
