About the author
John Wesley Powell
1834–1902
Best known for leading the 1869 expedition down the Green and Colorado rivers, he turned a dangerous journey through the Grand Canyon into one of the great stories of American exploration. He was also a scientist and public thinker whose ideas about the arid American West reached far beyond adventure.
