Destination: Arizona
Look beyond the sprawl and congestion of this desert state with books from Wallace Stegner, Geronimo and Barbara Kingsolver -- and an unlikely guide to the Grand Canyon.
By Stephen Amidon [2006-06-15]

  • Monument Valley

    I am more than happy to be corrected, but it's been my understanding that, while Monument Valley straddles the state line, the iconic vista so popular in movie Westerns (in John Ford's Stagecoach they never seem to get past it!) is on the Utah side but is always photographed from the Arizona side. In other words, to see it you have to go to Arizona, not Utah.
