Overview
LEE'S FERRY, the most historic point on the Colorado River, is the subject of this fascinating book, now revised, expanded, & updated by the authors. All river trips down the Grand Canyon begin at Lee's Ferry, & the site was critical in Colorado River explorations by Major John Wesley Powell. Lee's Ferry has served as the vital river crossing point for Mormon emigrants entering into Arizona Territory. Others who left their mark on this rugged wilderness were missionaries, promoters, miners, writers, politicians, & outlaws. Over 135 rare & unusual photographs are featured. The cover photograph is a beautiful, full-color view of Lee's Ferry, surrounded by the spectacular Vermilion Cliffs of northern Arizona. In addition to Lee's Ferry, the book also recounts the history of nearby areas. The book emphasizes human struggles in the harsh environment of this once isolated canyon wilderness. While tragedy was frequent, so also was good humor, especially evident in the writings of those who visited Lee's Ferry in its difficult early years. LEE'S FERRY - DESERT RIVER CROSSING, 180 pages, 7" x 10", paperback, retails for $14.95. It comes complete with endnotes, bibliography, & index. Customary dealer & library discounts are available.
