A Walk in the Park: The True Story of a Spectacular Misadventure in the Grand Canyon

Readers will be tempted to visit the canyon just to keep the book’s spell alive longer.

The book is its own wonder, one of nature and adventure and humanism that earns its place on the same rarefied shelf that is home to Edward Abbey and John McPhee.
