s_books 's review for:
If you were just interested in the speed run itself, this book might be a bit frustrating -- it takes quite a bit to get to the run itself, even to get to the predecessor runs, and in the mean time you have a lot of information about the early environmental movement and John Wesley Powell and the Bureau of Reclamation and Litton and his dories. Then once you get to the speed run itself it felt like it was just a bit glossed over; the whole drama at Glen Canyon Dam and its teetering on the brink of disaster felt like it was paid just as much, if not more attention. Which again, if that interests you (and it actually does interest me to an extent) that might be great but if all you wanted out of this book was a rip-roaring river ride, you might not enjoy this.
