Poetry and prose combine with color photographs to record the beauty of this region before it was closed for a reservoir.Glen Canyon disappeared slowly and quietly as a hard-fought political compromise led to its flooding when the gates of the new Glen Canyon were closed in 1963 and water began to back up in the canyon. Glen Canyon was a place of extraordinary beauty. Foremost environmental activist David Brower touts Glen Canyon Dam as "a major mistake of our time."
