Review:

"America's finest travel guidebook series . . . extensively researched, engagingly written, intelligently indexed, and packed with helpful maps and sidebars."

From the Author:

Exploring the Grand Canyon This book will lead you to adventures in one of the world's greatest wonders. In addition to their comprehensive coverage of Grand Canyon National Park, these pages will take you beyond the park's boundaries to cover the whole Canyon--the Indian lands, national forests, and Arizona Strip that overlook or extend into it. Grand Canyon Handbook grew out of seven editions of the acclaimed Arizona Handbook; you'll find the same extensive coverage of the Grand Canyon in both books. Whether you'd like to make a few scenic drives and easy rim-top strolls, or backpack into the "canyons within canyons" of the depths, or run the mighty Colorado River, the well-organized text and illustrations point to many possibilities. The readers always rank first in mind when I research and write the books, which include excellent coverage on things to do and where to find the best accommodations, campsites, and food. Extensive Internet listings point to the latest news, events, and environmental concerns. Money-saving tips show how to visit the Grand Canyon for "little more than a song."
