Book desription: Chicago, Illinois, U.S.A.: Univ of Utah Pr, 1998. Unknown. Soft Cover. New/No Jacket. Photographs and Maps. Includes a foreword by Don D. Fowler. Before Lake Powell there was Glen Canyon. For more that 1,300 years the canyon was home for generations of a prehistoric people now known as the Anasazi. As work began on the Glen Canyon Dam in 1957, so did a massive five-year operation to inventory the archaeology, geology, history and ecology of the canyon and its tributaries before they were submerged beneath Lake Powell. In this interpretive summary, Jesse Jennings shows the achievements of the salvage team and explains how the finds affected previous conclusions about the prehistory of the Southwest. Maps detail the area, and photographs point to the extensive archaeologic resources as well as the stunning landscape of what was then a very remote and difficult part of the country. This volume is a record of an impressive scientific accomplishment and testament of the rich history of Glen Canyon before the flood. New, still in publisher's plastic. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
