Picturing Sabino: A Photographic History of a Southwestern Canyon

By David Wentworth Lazaroff

Book Overview

Picturing Sabino tells the story of the desert canyon's transformation from a barely known oasis miles from a small nineteenth century town into an immensely popular recreation area on the edge of a modern metropolis. The story is vividly told through numerous historical photographs, lively anecdotes, and engaging text, informed by decades of research. Covering a century of change, from 1885 to 1985, this work relates the ups and downs of Sabino's protection and enjoyment, while it rejoices in the canyon's natural beauty.
