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.
