About This Item
London: Eveleigh Nash & Grayson, 1928. First British Edition. 242pp. Octavo [22 cm] Red cloth with title stamped in black on the front board and backstrip. Illustrated throughout with photographs and drawings. Map endsheets and pastedowns. The Rainbow Bridge and Indian life in the Navaho country in an easy-going story told by a distinguished anthropologist. "On emerging from a grove of trees we beheld before us a new and strange world: Rock, rock, rock; thousands upon thousands of red domes; more distant, two deep lines of red and purple; still farther away, snow-covered mountain peaks. The whole scene suggested a cubist painting. This region surrounding the canons of the San Juan and Colorado Rivers is the least known and least explored area in the United States. The last stronghold of Virgin Nature!" - p.196.
