Description
Author explores the meanings that are made by the La Paz Run, an annual commemoration of the hundreds of Hualapais who, in 1875, broke out of an internment camp in Southern Arizona and followed the Colorado River for almost 200 miles back to their reservation at the edge of the Grand Canyon.
