More About the Author
Product Description
Product Description
The author offers the up-to-date lowdown on 250 million years of history with this guide giving a unique glimpse into both rims of the canyon, surrounding Indian lands, the Arizona Strip and the gateway towns. Weir's discussion of canyon mule rides, pristine forests and rolling meadows lures anyone to venture or return to the region.
From the Author
Exploring the Grand Canyon This book will lead you to adventures in one of the world's greatest wonders. In addition to their comprehensive coverage of Grand Canyon National Park, these pages will take you beyond the park's boundaries to cover the whole Canyon--the Indian lands, national forests, and Arizona Strip that overlook or extend into it. Grand Canyon Handbook grew out of seven editions of the acclaimed Arizona Handbook; you'll find the same extensive coverage of the Grand Canyon in both books. Whether you'd like to make a few scenic drives and easy rim-top strolls, or backpack into the "canyons within canyons" of the depths, or run the mighty Colorado River, the well-organized text and illustrations point to many possibilities. The readers always rank first in mind when I research and write the books, which include excellent coverage on things to do and where to find the best accommodations, campsites, and food. Extensive Internet listings point to the latest news, events, and environmental concerns. Money-saving tips show how to visit the Grand Canyon for "little more than a song."

End of the Road for Author Bill Weir, 16 May 2008
By William S. Weir "Traveler" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Moon Handbooks Grand Canyon (Moon Handbooks) (Paperback)
Alas, the 3rd edition of Grand Canyon (2005) is the last one that I will write in the Moon Handbook series. The publisher has contracted a new author to write a smaller, more opinionated 4th edition with new text. It should not be judged--good or bad--based on the previous editions.

Perfect guide, 28 Dec 2006
By Andrew Parker - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Moon Handbooks Grand Canyon (Moon Handbooks) (Paperback)
this book is probably the best guide book I have ever used. It has really good info. It has information on both rims of the canyon and some surrounding areas of Arizona. It has a useful metric-standard conversion table in the back. Bill Weir writes like an expert. The book will make you an expert on the grand canyon. Not only does it contain tourist information but it also has history and facts about the canyon. Great travel tool.
