The Exploration of the Colorado River and Its Canyons is Powell's firstperson account of this daring expedition, which was accomplished without the benefit of modern riverrunning equipment, supplies, or a firm understanding of the region's treacherous terrain and the attitudes of the native inhabitants towards whites. This epic adventure is still as fresh and exciting today as it was over a century ago, ranking number four on Adventure magazine's list of top 100 classics. Penguin Classics, a leading publisher of classic literature for over seventy years, has released an authoritative edition of this seminal work, featuring an introduction and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors, as well as up-to-date translations by award-winning translators.
