Beyond the boundaries of the park, however, extends the greater Grand Canyon, a region that includes five Indian reservations, numerous human settlements, and lands managed by three federal agencies and by the states of Arizona and Utah.

It chronicles the ebb and flow of power - changes in who controls the land and gives it meaning. |
