In
the American Southwest the king of all canyons has been—and
is still being—forged. It is already so large,
so old, and so deep that it has become known throughout
the world as The Grand Canyon.
A
masterpiece of Nature’s artistry in sculpting
stone with time, the canyon stands today as a work still
in progress. The answers to many of the mysteries of
our world have been gradually revealed as each rock
layer is slowly exposed over vast amounts of time. One
question that remains unanswered when we wander to the
edge of the abyss is just how deep the river slicing
into the canyon’s heart will go.
Come,
peer from the canyon’s dizzying heights into one
of the Earth’s most incredible locales. Explore
the cliff-top forests, marvel at hints of lost civilizations,
find humorously acrobatic rock formations, and discover
beautiful places in the desert—and within yourself.
The secrets we unravel here lead us closer to an understanding
of the ancient world in which we dwell, for what the
desert reveals to us in red rock splendor is the story
of time immortal upon the Earth.
Let
your curiosity bring you to the very edge of the precipice
to look in and marvel at the beauty of Nature’s
work…here in The Unfinished Kingdom.
