In this book, the last of a trilogy about the lost Eden in Glen Canyon, Katie describes the people that lived at Dandy Crossing (Dandy Crossing (a ferry crossing on the old Colorado River between Hite Village and White Canyon, about three miles downstream from what is now Hite Marina) and her relationships with them. The filling of Reservoir Powell is about to irrevocably change their lives. The book is a triple love story: Katie's love of the beauty of Glen Canyon, her affair with a cowboy miner, and her love of the characters that once lived there.
The Ghosts of Dandy Crossing Reviews
-
lovely portrait of the area but a bit rambling and hard to stay focused on getting through it. The colloquial dialogue is charming but dense.

I would give this book 10/5 stars. I think about this book like 5 books later. It's like an octopus the way it tries to pull you back in with some big ol tentacles. It does have a slow start-or a complicated start maybe, but after that, it's all consuming. So goood!
