River Runners Guide to the History of the Grand Canyon Kim Crumbo; Llyn French and Edward Abbey

A River Runner's Guide to the History of the Grand Canyon is a rare and interesting depiction of man’s history in the Grand Canyon, and includes early river runners, miners, settlers, fortune hunters, etc. Following the river's chronology, events are tied to places in a mile-by-mile sequence for reference while running the river. The text is keyed to the maps that follow (from Escalante to Grand Wash Cliffs). Included is a bibliography, and maps by Llyn French.

"Everything in this book is immensely interesting to all who participate in a Canyon voyage, probably because, being human, we find the natural scene too strange and overwhelming to be fully comprehended and enjoyed for its own sake alone." ~ from the Foreword, by Edward Abbey
