Death on the North Rim

This book follows one of the men who wanted to fill the blank spots on the map: George Bradley, a Civil War veteran who joins John Powell and the crew of men who made the first trip through the canyons of the Green and Colorado Rivers. Facing unknown dangers, these men attempt to navigate territory that no American settler has ever seen before.
