House of Rain: Tracking a Vanished Civilization Across the American Southwest by Craig Childs

adventurous informative slow-paced

I found the first portion incredibly interesting and informative. I liked listening to the audiobook as I looked up pictures of the places each section featured. Would be great to listen to portions on a road trip through the areas. My interest largely stemmed from having visited Mesa Verde prior. 

The book just didn’t hold my interest. Pictures are vital for this topic and the audiobook lost its luster. The authors personal stories were more plentiful than I would have preferred. I was more interested in the facts than the personal journey.
