The Grand Canyon by Robert Wallace
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
This book has been in our home library since we subscribed to the Time-Life series, The American Wilderness. This one is underlined and starred for information we used for previous visits to the Grand Canyon, both North and South Rims.
This time I noticed more of Wallace's writing craft when he uses such phrases as "...the proximity of parked cars and postcards at Bright Angel Lodge." Excerpts of writings by John Wesley Powell are in the section named Exploring the "Fretful River".This armchair traveler ejoyed the chapters named "The Challenge of White Water" and "Riding the Rapids."
I recommend this book to all readers.
