The classic tale of adventure and exploration of the rivers and canyonlands of the Colorado Plateau, originally published in 1875 -- and still essential reading for any traveler to the Grand Canyon. The one-armed explorer/scientist Powell captures all the exhilaration and danger of adventure in unknown territory. He and his men explored 1,000 miles of often-treacherous river in what is now Utah and Arizona.  (USW80, $15.00)
