Canyons of the Southwest : A Tour of the Great Canyon Country from Colorado to Northern Mexico by Annernino, John
Description
Tucson, AZ, U.S.A.: University of Arizona Press, 2000. Very Good+ in glossy pictorial wraps, large format (pb). 144pps., with numerous full-page, full-color illustrations. There is modest rubbing and bumping to the wraps as well as a remainder mark, otherwise clean, tight, square, and bright. No reading wear or previous ownership markings.
"...The canyons of the southwestern United States and northern Mexico contain some of the most dramatic landscapes in the world. John Annerino's pictorial celebration of this visually rich region is a handsome memento for those who have heard the wind whistling in these haunting canyons, and a beckoning invitation for those who have not yet made the journey. Annerino has spent much of his adult life exploring this territory -- as wilderness runner, adventurer, and photojournalist -- and combines his firsthand knowledge with his expertise as a nature photographer and author to create an intimate portrait of these timeless places. Accompanying the photographs are informative essays describing the region's geological and human history..."

rubbing : Abrasion or wear to the surface. Usually
used in reference to a book's boards or dust-jacket.
bumping : Indicates that the affected part of the book has been impacted in such a way so as to cause a flattening, indention, or light bending.
tight : Used to mean that the binding of a book has not been overly loosened by frequent use.
pictorial wraps : Indicates that the covers of a paperback are decorated with a pitcure of some sort.
remainder mark : Usually an ink marking of some sort which indicates that the book was designated a remainder. In most cases, it can be found on the edges of the text block in the form of a marker stripe or a stamp of some sort.
Remainder marks considerably lower the overall collectibility of a title, although, in some cases, they are acceptable to a collector.
