Description du livre Trade Paperback. Etat : Very Good. First Edition Stated. 305 Pages Indexed. The American Southwest attracts a special kind of traveller. The vast expanses and terrible natural beauty intimidate some, but inspire others who love the region. The hardy cultures that have settled here --- Indians, Hispanics and all those affectionately lumped together as Anglos --- share this fascinating mix of self-reliance and humility that the landscpe instills. Not all of the Southwest is somber. There is plenty of fun to be had. To the lover of the outdoors, the entire region is a playground. To the gambler, Las Vegas is a mecca. To the tourist, the Grand Canyon may well be the ultimate sight. To the student of Native American Culture, the area offers art, ceremony and Indian Reservations the size of New England. The fine maps, lush photography and lively writing make for a book as bold and beautiful as the Southwest itself. Illustrated with black and white and color photography on almost every page. Contents in Five Parts: Creation Land and History, People, Places, Features, and Guide in Brief. Essay by Tony Hillerman describes what the regions offer. And he muses that perhaps, as the Indians believe, this is Holy Land. The seventh title in the Insight Guide series and is the ultimate guide to the American Southwest. N° de réf. du vendeur 7335
