Over the Edge: Death in Grand Canyon

Author(s): Michael P. Ghiglieri; Thomas M. Myers

SECONDHAND BOOKS | TRAVEL

Gripping accounts of all known fatal mishaps in the most famous of the World's Seven Natural Wonders.


Two veterans of decades of adventuring in Grand Canyon chronicle the first complete and comprehensive history of Canyon misadventures. These episodes span the entire era of visitation from the time of the first river exploration by John Wesley Powell and his crew of 1869 to that of tourists falling off its rims in Y2K.


These accounts of the 550 people who have met untimely deaths in the Canyon set a new high watermark for offering the most astounding array of adventures, misadventures, and life-saving lessons published between any two covers. Over the Edge promises to be the most intense yet informative book on Grand Canyon ever written.

Reprint. A near fine copy only marked by light bumping to the corners of the wraps.
