Like a bright blue seam incised deep in solid rock, the Escalante River binds the fir forests of Utah's High Plateau with the barren deserts of the canyonlands region in the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument. To this wild landscape, naturalist Thomas Fleischner brings both emotional engagement and a wealth of knowledge. With unabashed passion and patient and learned observations Fleischner presents what he calls a "guide to understanding" this relatively unknown landscape.
Integrating personal narrative and natural history, Singing Stone is ideal for curious visitors to the national monument as well as students of environmental studies. Illustrative photographs accompany an invaluable textual survey of the unique geology, flora and fauna, and human history of the region. The recent impacts of grazing and wilderness recreation and the resultant shifts in cultural values and public policy are also explored, offering a lens through which these changes, now the topic of examination and controversy throughout the New West, can be clearly seen and, it is hoped, re-evaluated.
