The Arizona Trail: Passages in Poetry celebrates the American wilderness, wildland travel, and the glorious outdoors in recreation and re-creation through the eyes of a poet. Each poem in this book was inspired by sections of the eight-hundred-mile trail that winds its way through some of the most picturesque wilds of Arizona. Through the power of poetic verse, readers will explore the trail's natural wonders, see glimpses of Arizona history, and have some unforgettable chance encounters with like-minded trekkers who push daylight from dawn to dusk.
