Reviews
--NATIONAL PARKS TRAVELER
"The book's contributors are writers from different backgrounds, races and generations who all agree on the spiritual, cultural and scientific importance of protecting the proposed Bears Ears National Monument."
--SALT LAKE MAGAZINE
"Utah has been my home for over half a century. Native Americans have inhabited these landscapes since time immemorial. The writers in Red Rock Stories capture that connection in essays and poems that run as deep as the canyons of the Colorado River."
--ROBERT REDFORD, actor, director, environmentalist
"In voices as rich and varied as the land itself, Red Rock Stories converges upon a vision for a relationship with the living land which is both ancient and urgent, a healing vision where the land and the people are linked by mutual responsibility."
--ROBIN WALL KIMMERER, author of Braiding Sweetgrass
"If you haven't been there, these words will take you. If you have, drink these stories, poems, remembrances, essays like rain from a water pocket and remember."
--CRAIG CHILDS, author of Virga & Bone
"There is no more foundational element of democracy than shared public lands. Whatever we can do to defend them, we must, and then more. In conversation, in thought, in deed, our voices must rise--in good and necessary efforts like Red Rock Stories."
--RICK BASS, author of For a Little While
"Whether speaking of us Millennials and our hunger for justice or the millennial-old respect that land has for its Native peoples, this collection is a promise."
--MORGAN CURTIS, storyteller and climate activist with Climate Journey and Our Children's Trust
"Public lands accessible to all nurture a free people, of diverse cultures, some with ancient bonds to such landscapes. They are not a luxury or a waste. Try running an engine with gas but no oil. Also, please read this book."
--DAVID QUAMMEN, author of Spillover
