Color photos and descriptions of the geology and weather, plants, animals, people, and places of the Colorado Plateau make up this book, providing a "glimpse," as Engelhard calls it, into the
character of the landscape. Each one-page description is accompanied by a vivid photo of aspens, sand dunes, the mountain lion, waterfalls, and cliff dwellings, for instance. There is no index.
Engelhard is a wilderness guide and the author of Where the Rain Children Sleep. Annotation 穢2007 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
