Description

This magnificently photographed, information-packed celebration tells the story of the canyon as only Page Stegner can--from its geologic birth and ongoing transformation to its native populations and early explorers; from the lives of the animals who make their home on the canyon's rim and in its crags to Stegner's own lifetime of adventures shooting the rapids of the Colorado River, hiking the canyon's trails, and exploring the region's most remote treasures.
