River to Rim tells the stories of rapids, temples, and points in the Grand Canyon: who named what and when, quotations from explorers, names given by tourists and river runners, and the events that gave rise to the place names. Whether you are viewing the scenery from the rim, running the river, or hiking the trails, here are the stories of over 600 place names along 300 miles of the Colorado River in Grand Canyon on a mile-by-mile sequence. Names are indexed and tied to a bibliography of over 200 entries.

"Of the thousands of publications about the Colorado River through Grand Canyon, Nancy Brian's "River to Rim" is one of a handful of "go to" references I consult most often. Besides that, it is a good read on its own." --Richard Quartaroli, Colorado River historian
