Utah State University Press, Logan, 2001, 220pp., illus., references. Although John Wesley Powell and party are usually given credit for the first river descent through the Grand Canyon, the ghost of James White has haunted those claims. White was a Colorado prospector, who, almost two years before Powell s journey, washed up on a makeshift raft at Callville, Nevada. His claim to have entered the Colorado above the San Juan River with another man (soon drowned) as they fled from Indians was widely disseminated and believed for a time, but Powell and his successors on the river publicly discounted it. Colorado River runners and historians have since debated whether White s passage through Grand Canyon even could have happened. Hell or High Water is the first full account of White s story and how it became distorted and he disparaged over time. It is also a fascinating detective story, recounting how White s granddaughter, Eilean Adams, over decades and with the assistance of a couple of notable Colorado River historians who believed he could have done what he claimed, gradually uncovered the record of James White s adventure and put together a plausible narrative of how and why he ended up floating helplessly down a turbulent river, entrenched in massive cliffs, with nothing but a driftwood raft to carry him through.

In January 2002, nearly 200 historians, witnesses to history, park employees, and others with a passion for Grand Canyon history gathered on the South Rim for the inaugural Grand Canyon History Symposium. Nothing like that had ever been attempted before, and the resulting presentations, discussions, and storytelling sessions generated lively discussions among the attendees.

Anderson, PhD, has assembled A Gathering of Grand Canyon Historians: Ideas, Arguments, and First-Person Accounts, a collection of essays based on the pre­sen­tations at the history symposium. The resulting volume is diverse, thought-provoking, enter­taining, and controversial.

Like its more famous cousin, the Colorado, the Green has captivated, capsized, and cajoled all types of characters with challenges and beauty to match its geologic variety. In The Green River Reader, editor Blackstock brings this mysterious, magnificent, thrilling river to the reader with an interpretive guide that will inform both river novices and river veterans.

Privately produced in a second edition of 275 copies numbered and signed. This is an account of the exploration and use of the first federally-funded wagon road in the Southwest. The route was marked in 1857-58 from Fort Smith, Arkansas to the Colorado River by the colorful Lieutenant Edward F. Beale. It was in Arizona on this expedition that he successfully conducted the Army's famous experiment in using Arabian camels. Emigrant wagon trains followed the road in 1858 only to be repulsed by Indians; Fort Mojave was established on the river to protect travelers. Gold was discovered at Lynx Creek (near Prescott) and Beale's Road drew gold-seekers from the coast as well as from the mid-west. Large cattle and sheep drives soon followed with increased emigrant traffic until the Atlantic and Pacific Railroad (Santa Fe) followed in Beale's tracks in 1883. Today Highway 66 and Interstate 40 follow much of Beale's Road to Southern California. <BR> (A) This copy is # 155. Signed by Bowman & Smith.

Inspired to write the Grand Canyon Orphan Mine book before its history is lost forever in the annals of time, this book, of original data and photos, relates to the history, geology, underground mining operations, events and stories of the Grand Canyon Orphan Mine. It is a historical and colorful book of the only mine to operate within the Grand Canyon National Park. This book is one of a kind for collectors and will appeal to all ages as a gift, souvenir, and a classic addition to personal and public libraries. New. Signed. $19.95 <BR><BR> 74. Chaput, Donald.

Wheeler headed the War Department's mapping program from 1866 until 1888, when he retired. Wheeler's reports were, as Dawdy discovered, misleading, concealing - among other things - certain mining operations in which Wheeler was involved. The author's research at the National Archives and Interior Department, and a recent Indian rights case filed by the Hualapais, yielded a much fuller account of Wheeler's activities, including his 1871 expedition. New light on this colorful, free-wheeling pioneer figure. Robert Euler wrote a book review of this title in "The Journal of Arizona History."

Fretwater Press, Arizona, 8vo., red cloth w/gilt, pict. dustjacket, map endpapers, 288pp., photos, index. Glen and Bessie Hyde began their honeymoon trip down the Green and Colorado Rivers on October 20, 1928. A month later they hiked to the rim of Grand Canyon, resupplied, and returned to their boat. When they did not arrive at trip s end, Glen s father launched an exhaustive search of lower Grand Canyon. The Hydes crude sweep scow was found in calm water, fully loaded. But Glen and Bessie had vanished without a trace. So began the greatest mystery in the annals of whitewater navigation. More than 40 years later, in 1971, an older woman on a Grand Canyon river trip announced she was Bessie Hyde. She said she had stabbed Glen, hiked out, and started life anew. In 1976 a skeleton thought to be Glen Hyde s was found at the Canyon rim with a bullet in the skull. Since then, another suspected Glen and another Bessie have appeared, further convoluting the myth of the Hydes. Author and boatman Brad Dimock searched the country for the true story of the Hydes. He followed each story and obscure lead to its end, even going to the extreme of recreating the Hydes archaic craft for a harrowing trip through Grand Canyon with his own bride. Sunk Without a Sound is the riveting tale of the search for Glen and Bessie Hyde. "A damned good book. Hard to put down." [Tony Hillerman] Ford 41. <BR> (A) 2001, 1st edition. As new.

Fretwater Press, Arizona, 2003, 8vo., 252pp., illus. In 1937, Haldane "Buzz" Holstrom launched his home-made wooden rowboat at Green River Wyoming and rowed more than 1,000 rapid-strewn miles to Boulder Dam. He was the first to do it alone. A year earlier he had soloed Idaho's Salmon  The River of No Return. Although Holmstrom tried to keep his exploits private, the press made him a national celebrity. In 1938, Holmstrom repeated his Green and Colorado trip for film. Now Brad Dimock, one of Holmstrom's biographers, has transcribed each of Holstrom's journals, as well as those of his 1938 companions, to more fully tell the story of one of America's greatest, most eloquent, and most humble boatmen. For those who have read The Doing of the Thing and want to know Holmstrom better, or for those who simply want to follow a brilliant man, through his own words, as he moves uneasily from the age of wilderness expeditions to the more modern commercialized era, Every Rapid Speaks Plainly will speak to you.

This superb paper is one of several in the same volume, including Gilbert's "History of Lake Bonneville," Emmon's "Geology of Leadville," and Becker's "Geology of the Comstock Lode." Each of these, including the Dutton, is an abbreviated version of a longer monograph later published separately by the USGS. The Dutton paper, a condensation of his TERTIARY, has received little notice in Canyon studies and bibliographies. Farquhar does not mention it.

George Corning Fraser, who lived in the days before automobile travel became a way of life, was an easterner who loved to vacation on horseback in the American Southwest. No mere tourist, he sought out the most remote and forbidding landscapes he could find: the seldom-visited country north of the Grand Canyon, the vast slickrock expanses of the Navajo Reservation, and sites such as Zion Canyon and Capitol Reef before they became national parks. An amateur geologist, Fraser stood at the same panoramic viewpoints used by Major John Wesley Powell to make the first maps of the Plateau Province. As he penned his own memorable observations of the region s landforms, he also wrote of campouts at stunning Grand Canyon vistas or meals shared with forest rangers and cowhands, recorded sympathetic accounts of local residents, and told of hazards he encountered on rocky trails and primitive wagon tracks. Frederick H. Swanson has edited Fraser s voluminous journals into a single volume covering three trips: Zion Canyon, the Toroweap, and the North Rim of the Grand Canyon in 1914. Accompanied by a selection of photographs taken by Fraser and his fellow travelers, Journeys in the Canyon Lands brings to life the Southwest s breathtaking backcountry on the brink of discovery. <BR> (A) New............................................................................................................. $19.95 <BR> (B) O.n. o/w VG................................................................................................... $9.00 <BR><BR> 140.

Puma Press, Arizona, 2001, 1st edition, 8vo., navy 408pp., illus., index. Arizona-based authors Ghiglieri, a biologist who leads river trips in the Grand Canyon and abroad, and Myers (Fateful Journey: Injury and Death on Colorado River Trips in Grand Canyon), a medical doctor who has treated hundreds of Canyon injuries, have compiled a fascinating chronicle of deaths and dangers in Grand Canyon National Park. The book is arranged by category falls, dehydration, floods, the Colorado River, air crashes, freak accidents, suicides, and murder and at the end of each chapter is a chronological list with names, descriptions, and causes of the accidents. The authors show that most of the deaths, whether of tourists, prospectors, or experienced adventurers, occurred when people failed to pay attention to warning signs or did not use common sense; others are attributed to high testosterone levels. <BR> (A) Blue cloth w/gilt, pict. dustjacket.

This is the story of the 1952 season when the author and her family operated the now vanished Rainbow Lodge and Trading Post in the far northern part of the Navajo reservation, an area now easily accessible by boat on Lake Powell. It is a first-hand account of dealing with the tourist trade and running the last regular mule trips to Rainbow Bridge as well as "trading by ear" with the Navajos in what was then the most isolated part of Arizona. At the time of this story few adults native to the Navajo Mountain area spoke English, and most transportation was by mule-drawn wagon, horseback, or on foot. Tourists who took the mule trip on the 14-mile trail to the Bridge had already braved a rudimentary road over sand and slickrock to reach the Lodge, and were the self-selected few who sought such adventure in the era before sport utility vehicles and power boats opened the region to many.

Born in 1886 to Mormon pioneers in Snowflake, Arizona, Kartchner enjoyed a variety of occupations in his life from cowpuncher, store clerk to forest ranger.

Katie was among a handful of people who knew the 170 miles of Glen Canyon very well. She had made 16 trips down the river, even named some of the side canyons. Glen Canyon and the river that ran through it had changed her life. So it is not surprising that she has never gotten over her horror and disbelief at the destruction of this exquisite Eden under millions of gallons of water behind Glen Canyon Dam. Here, Katie tells us what there was to love about Glen Canyon and why we should miss it. The canyon had great personal significance for her: She had gone to Hollywood to make her career as an actress and a singer, but the river kept calling her back, showing her a better life. She very eloquently weaves her personal story into her breathtaking descriptions of the trips she made down the canyon. Out of print in hardback. <BR> (A) 1st edition, 8vo., cloth, dustjacket.

Howes (P527) calls this "The first complete narrative" [of Powell's famed transit of the Colorado river]; his earlier reports were largely devoted to scientific data." Scores of woodcuts and drawings, some already familiar to owners of EXPLORATION in other editions, some found only in the 1895 Meadville and its beautiful Argosy facsimile. Farquhar (43) gives the Meadville a separate listing because "it differs in so many respects from the report of 1875...Not only has the narrative been revised and augmented, but there are several new chapters and a great many new illustrations. Included in the latter are adaptations from the superb sketches of William H. Holmes which are featured in the Dutton atlas. Altogether, it is a handsome book, and also a scarce one." "Scarce" is an understatement: it is believed, by some Powell experts, and by Van Allen Bradley, that only a hundred or so copies of the Meadville ever reached the marketplace, so the copy offered here may be literally "one in a hundred." Darrah, in his POWELL OF THE COLORADO, says the Major was handsomely paid for his writing. He planned, said Darrah, to save the money toward purchase of a summer cottage "on some rocky shore of the ocean." Powell ultimately made this dream come true.

Reprint of the complete text of 1879 report, including maps, plus Stegner's introduction and notes by Stegner, and a chronology of Powell's life. Landmark study of water in the American West - Wallace Stegner stated, "it would ultimately be recognized as one of the most important books ever written about the West." Any discussion of water in the American West begins with this Report. And as the late bookseller Jack Rittenhouse noted in his Catalogue 83, "The study of Western ecology probably begins with this report, for Powell foresaw that timber and rivers should be handled with care." "This is Powell's finest book, written after he had seen the Mormon's successfully irrigating the Southwest region, especially Utah. It is mostly concerned with water. The Report is among the great classics of western history, showing the developmental possibilities of the arid regions of the West"  Paher 1581. Powell's report is also notable for the large folding map of Utah Territory. Stegner states "there is a clear line of development" from Powell's Report "to the multi-purpose river-control installations and the multi-bureaued federal administration of the Public Domain that we have known through much of the twentieth century and especially since the nineteen-thirties."

This and Vol. XVI-XVII are widely regarded as the "Big Three" in Powell research material published by the Utah Historical Society. William Culp Darrah, one of two Major Powell biographers (Stegner is the other), wrote a number of biographical sketches for Vol. XV, and edited several important source documents as well. Among the latter are George Y. Bradley's journal, Powell's letters to the Chicago Tribune, letters of W. H. Powell to the Chicago Evening Journal, letters of O. G. Howland to the Rocky Mountain News, J. C. Sumner's journal, Powell's journal, and several others. Of special significance is the appearance of Capt. Francis Marion Bishop's journal, edited by Charles Kelly. Bishop, a student of Powell at Illinois Wesleyan, was picked by the Major as topographer on the second expedition (Dellenbaugh was named assistant topographer). Bishop's letters to the Bloomington Pantograph also are reproduced.

Farquhar: "These volumes are grouped together as they form a unit in the documentary history of the Powell survey. Valuable source material." This and Vol. XV which preceded it are widely regarded as the "Big Three" in Powell research material published by the Society. Dale Morgan, in his intro. to Vol. XVI-XVII states: "With this volume of its Quarterly the (Society) completes one of its most ambitious and most important projects, the publication of the original journals of the Powell expeditions of 1869-72." The Table of Contents reads like a Who's Who of Powelliana and River Lore. There's Dr. Herbert Gregory, editing the journal of Stephen Vandiver Jones; William Culp Darrah, editing John F. Steward's journal; Charles Kelly, performing the same task for Walter Clement Powell; Darrah again for Beaman, Fennemore, Hillers, Dellenbaugh, Johnson, and Hattan papers, and an appendix containing three Andrew Hall letters (again, Darrah). Preceding each journal is a biography of the author, in each case by the editor. There are 11 historically significant photos, a frontispiece in color by Dellenbaugh, and a map of the Green and Colorado to the mouth of the Virgin.

Edward Dolnick is the former chief science writer at the Boston Globe. He has written for the Atlantic Monthly, New York Times Magazine, Washington Post, and many others. He made his first Grand Canyon river trip 20 years ago. John Wesley Powell's legendary expedition down the Colorado River in 1869 is one of the great, unknown adventure stories in American history. In May of 1869, Powell, a one-armed Civil War veteran, and his band of nine other adventurers started their journey "down the great unknown;" six weeks later, just six of the 10 men came ashore near Las Vegas Nevada and first told the world about the Grand Canyon. Dolnick is using never-before-seen diaries to recreate this lost journey of history. Ford 42. <BR> (A) New York, 2001, stated 1st edition, pict. boards, half dustjacket as issued.

W. W. Rankin, W. F. Swift, T. Heberton Doan, and the author made up the party bound for the Rainbow Arch (Rainbow Bridge) located on the northern slope of Navaho Mountain near the Arizona-Utah border. While in the west, they made several side trips before their Rainbow Arch adventure. After their train ride from Cleveland, Ohio, they made side trips to the Petrified Forest, Painted Desert, and the Grand Canyon, including a mule ride down the Hermit Trail to Hermit Camp and the Colorado River, then across the Tonto Trail to Indian Gardens and out the Bright Angel Trail. Their 160-mile adventurous auto trip across the desert and mountains in the heart of the Navaho Indian Reservation ended in Kayenta, Arizona, at the doorstep of Mr. and Mrs. Wetherill's home. It was a most picturesque dwelling decorated with Indian rugs, pottery, and implements. During their visit, they had the good fortune to meet Byron Cummings and Dr. Guernsey of the Peabody Museum of Boston. Their horseback trip from Kayenta to Rainbow Arch was a true adventure, meeting Indians, having horses slide off the treacherous trail, visiting Keet Seel and Betatakin Indian Ruins, running low on water, and finally seeing the majestic Arch. An excellent early account of a trip to Rainbow Bridge and the Grand Canyon. "Side Lights on the Trip Through the Arizona Desert" (a laid-in pamphlet in the original, missing in all but one known copy) is included in the reprint bound in as separate chapters.

The expedition consisted of Lorenzo Sitgreaves, Lieutenant J. G. Parke, Dr. S. W. Woodhouse, R. H. Kern with Major H. L. Kendrick in command of the escort and Antoine Leroux as guide. The group left Santo Domingo NM on August 1, 1851, stopped at Zuni in September and arrived at San Diego on November 30. Kern's drawings of the Zuni Indians doing the "Buffalo Dance" was the first and perhaps the only depiction of the seldom-performed dance. Woodhouse contributed the general natural history report as well as those on mammals, birds and medical aspects; Hallowell reported on reptiles, Torrey on botany; and Baird and Girard covered fishes and Kern contributed the handsome views and illustrations of the Indians.

Stegner praised the book thus: "Her log of a leisurely raft journey down that most beautiful of river reaches was written as an almost breathless celebration.

Fretwater Press, Arizona, 2003, 8vo., pict. wraps, 180pp., illus., foreword by Brad Dimock. In 1911, The Kolb brothers, Emery and Ellsworth, young photographers living on the South Rim of Grand Canyon, conceived a preposterous expedition: although neither of them knew much about whitewater, they had two wooden rowboats built, and proposed to row them the entire eleven hundred miles of the Green and Colorado Rivers. The trip was not solely for thrills. They planned to make not just still and stereo photographs, but moving pictures as well. In early September they launched from Green River, Wyoming. For the next four and a half months, the brothers rowed, careened, roped, dragged, and carried their boats through and around the rapids, often finding themselves swimming in the freezing river, patching and repatching their boats, and salvaging what film and equipment they could from their flooded hatches. Their first assistant left in tears after the first week, but was replaced on the last leg of the journey by stalwart Bert Lauzon, a miner, cowboy, and roustabout. Against all odds, the three men emerged from Grand Canyon in January 1912, with photographs and movies they would show and sell for the next sixty years. Here for the first time are their on-the-spot accounts, transcribed from the journals they penciled late at night along the shore. Theirs is a tale of phenomenal courage, terrific luck, and dogged perseverance. And in spite of unending hardship, the brothers had nearly as much fun doing it back then, as you will have following along nearly a century later. Ford 54. New. $15.95 <BR><BR> 322.
