"Podmore's essays resemble Ralph Waldo Emerson and Henry David Thoreau with an extra dose of social, racial and political analysis."
&;ARIZONA DAILY SUN
In the wake of his river&;running mother's death, Zak Podmore explores the healing power of wild places through a lens of grief and regeneration. Visceral, first&;person narratives include a canoe crossing of the Colorado River delta during a rare release of water, a kayak sprint down a flash&;flooding Little Colorado River, and a packraft trip on the Elwha River in Washington through the largest dam removal project in history.
Award&;winning journalist and film producer ZAK PODMORE covers conservation issues, outdoor sports, and Utah politics. He is a Report for America fellow at the Salt Lake Tribune and editor&;at&;large for Canoe & Kayak magazine. His work appears in Outside, High Country News, Four Corners Free Press, and the Huffington Post. He lives in Bluff, Utah.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Reprint. 154 pp. Duodecimo [20.2 cm]. Illustrated wraps. From the publisher: "What he finds is a wilderness infused with personal stories, as well as a landscape strained by political, environmental, and cultural tensions. A trip down the Rio Grande in Big Bend National Park leads to a confrontation with US immigration policy. While canoeing down a rare release of water in the Colorado River delta, Podmore questions the economic foundations of Western water management. He reports on uranium tailings near the San Juan River, dam removals on Washington's Elwha River, and a tourist development in the Grand Canyon. Moving and provocative, Confluence follows in the tradition of Thoreau or Edward Abbey it takes us into the wild but always has one eye turned back toward the blessings and ills of civilization.".
