Where the Rain Children Sleep: A Sacred Geography of the Colorado PlateauInspired by a year of hiking 120 desert canyons, Where the Rain Children Sleep is nature writing in the best tradition of Edward Abbey, Ellen Meloy, and Craig Childs. Much more than one man's memoir of his time in these canyons, it is an eclectic, well informed, critical, and in depth collection punctuated by flashes of humor and whimsy. The vivid thread connecting these essays is the Navajo concept of a "sacred geography." Michael Engelhard has

Inspired by a year of hiking 120 desert canyons, Where the Rain Children Sleep is nature writing in the best tradition of Edward Abbey, Ellen Meloy, and Craig Childs. Much more than one man's memoir of his time in these canyons, it is an eclectic, well-informed, critical, and in-depth collection punctuated by flashes of humor and whimsy. The vivid thread connecting these essays is the Navajo concept of a "sacred geography." Michael Engelhard has traveled and explored the Southwest for close to twenty years. His heartfelt portrayal of this region straddles the fences normally separating natural history, ethnography, personal reflection, and travel narrative. These essays spring from a growing concern that the song of the land, the stories of these places, and the voices of their nonhuman and indigenous inhabitants might not be heard against the din of bulldozers, powerboats, turbines, and four-wheelers.

Great quality
Color: Pink
Not the pretty pink that’s in the advertising photos they’re using, and my camera is always spot on with colors. Heavy and a great pot though!

A Must-Have for Home Cooking
Color: Red
This Dutch oven is excellent for everyday cooking. It’s solid, heavy duty, and heats evenly, making it perfect for stews, soups, roasts, and baked dishes. The 6QT size is ideal for family meals, and the lid fits tightly to lock in moisture and flavor, giving tender and delicious results every time. It works great in the oven or on the stovetop and holds heat really well for slow cooking. Overall, it’s a reliable, versatile, and affordable Dutch oven that performs like more expensive brands.
