Synopsis

Grand Canyon: Views beyond the Beauty, by acclaimed photographer Gary Ladd, is your personal guide to the Grand Canyon, the only book that answers the question, “What’s down there?”

· Covers twenty North and South Rim overlooks, including Grand Canyon Village, Yavapai Point, Mather Point, Desert View, and Bright Angel Point
· Includes more than 100 photographs of views from overlooks and of innercanyon sites
· Features facts about dozens of inner-canyon rock formations and other features
· Discusses the geology, human history, prehistory, ecology, and weather patterns of one of the seven natural wonders of the world

If you have ever stood at a Grand Canyon overlook and wondered which buttes you are looking at, the name of the trail that snakes far below, or what the Colorado River looks like close-up, your curiosity will be satiated by the spectacular photographs and reader-friendly narrative of Grand Canyon: Views beyond the Beauty.
