Softcover. Condition: Very Good. Over the course of one summer, fifteen of today's best women writers descended into the heart of the Grand Canyon on the Colorado River. It was the chance of a lifetime-to do something most had never done before, to have life-changing, even dangerous experiences and share them in this trailblazin…g book. For 12 days and 180 miles on the river, I am filled with awe--so struck by it, in fact, that if I have any courage at all, I shall never be the same.--Theresa Jordan. 100+ color photos. Ryan's photographs of rock, water, and sky round out this evocative portrait of a place unlike any in the world. Taken as a whole, Writing Down the River is a collection of personal reflections as well as a tribute to the unifying power of landscape.

From a 2013 review by Paul Busch: "Having recently paddled 226 miles of the Colorado River through the Grand Canyon, it was a pleasure to read this collection of short narratives by women who also made that journey. The women who were invited to contribute were all accomplished writers, so the writing is excellent. If you've made this trip, the book will remind you of the joys of the canyon. If you haven't made the trip, it may inspire you to do so." Oversize Hardcover. Oblomg. 10.75" wide by 9.75" tall.
