A personal and historical exploration of the Bears Ears country and the fight to save a national monument.
What The Reviewers Say
With his rambling style and multiplicity of sources, Roberts 'jumps around the ages,' seamlessly blending memoir, history, and reportage to describe the region’s human story.
An engrossing history of an area that’s become enveloped in controversy. Roberts’s episodic 'human history' ignores chronology to 'jump around among the ages' and stretches back to the Ancestral Puebloans.
The popular historian and explorer of the Southwest digs deep into the secrets of a remote slice of the American wilderness.
