Description: Journey along one of North America's most vital and contested waterways, from its headwaters high in the Rocky Mountains to its diminished delta far downstream. This comprehensive exploration traces the engineering marvels that reshaped the Colorado River, including Hoover Dam, Glen Canyon Dam, and the reservoirs that transformed the American Southwest. Along the way, readers encounter the complex hydrology, legal frameworks, and interstate compacts that govern every drop of its flow. A thoughtful examination of how human ambition and natural systems collide in the arid West.
