Hopi traditional elder Thomas Banyacya once described the American
Southwest as "the spiritual center of our continent." Author,
photographer, and adventurer John Annerino retraces ancient trails
to show us why this is so. Through recent and historical photos,
essays, and literary quotes, he takes us across what the Spaniards
often feared as despoblados, or uninhabited lands, from Old Mexico
to the Four Corners of ancient cities, painted deserts, and
trilingual cultural landscapes-some of the most inaccessible land
on the continent. Juxtaposed with tales of his own perilous
excursions, the book contains oral histories and remarkable images
of terrain that few of today's tourists have ever seen. Told from a
current point of view, this throwback to the days of Geronimo and
Navajo headman Manuelito will appeal to adventurers, historians,
and those interested in the mesmerizing mystique of our own
American outback.
