Interesting/Educational Sites Not on GC


Abbey's Web-A website for all sorts of info on Ed Abbey. Come on, you knew I was going to put that in!

Books

Well, everyone knows "How the Canyon Became Grand" etc. However, there are books that might not pretain to the GC directly, or at all, which nonetheless are worth looking at. So I won't put in the books from the reading lists from the semester, but start off with just some of the titles on my bookshelf, and we'll go from there.

RATINGS:
I decided to put Rated-R next to some books that some might consider as too graphic, using "inappropriate" language etc. If you think it is unnecessary-let me know, I personally, as you all know, don't care, just thought I'd put this in.
