Synopsis:
Author Lucy Rees and a companion travel across the Arizona desert to the Hopi Indian mesas, where they search for an ancient stone carving similar to one in their native Wales. The stone's intricate design becomes a purpose for their trek as well as a metaphor for the journey itself. Humorous and wise, the book is both a bold adventure and a moving account of tragedy and hope.
Review: "Rees' intrepid wilderness journey becomes an enlightening spiritual quest. The Maze is a must for nature readers."--Anne LaBastille, author of Woodswoman "Rees writes ravishingly of man's relationship with the natural world. . . . On one level, [it] is a travel book for horse lovers; but it is also, marvelously, a book about contemplation and the ability of some travellers to connect truly with the land."--The Times, London
