Editorial Reviews: Book Description This is the only book describing the thirty year struggle to gain Wilderness protection for the Grand Canyon. It describes how the Colorado River became the sticking point and the tug-of-war between rafting outfitters and wilderness advocates - with the National Park Service trying to referee. Told from the point of view of the wilderness advocates, it is a source book of information showing how the current situation came to be and what small triumphs have been achieved along the way.
