Timothy L Parks

In this unique volume, author and historian Timothy L. Parks tells the story of the construction of Glen Canyon Dam, an engineering feat equaled only by its older brother, the Hoover Dam, built 350 miles downstream and some 30 years prior. Through a fascinating collection of photographs, many never before published, Parks illustrates the technology and the equipment, the imagination and the hard work of thousands that made Glen Canyon Dam-and the beautiful Lake Powell- a reality.
