The Southwest's Contrary Land: Forever Changing Between Four Corners and the Sea of Cortes (Arizona Highways Books)

This beautifully illustrated volume explores the intriguing landscape of the Southwest. Childs (naturalist, former river guide, backpacker, musician and sketcher, field instructor in natural history, and NPR commentator) shares what he discovered in his travels over hundreds of miles of varied landscapes and life zones. The chapters cover the Mogollon Rim to the Salt River, Mount Graham, Alpine to Little Blue Creek, Sedona and the Colorado Plateau, canyons, the lower Colorado River and the desert, and over the Sonoran to the Sea of Cortes.
