Description

No DJ. Hardbound in NF. Has some aging. Originally published in October 1914. This is the twelfth printing in 1952. SIGNED BY AUTHOR AND HIS BROTHER (Ellsworth and Emery Kolb). ""In 1902, Emery and Ellsworth Kolb opened a studio in the Grand Canyon and began making photographs of mule parties, landscapes, river adventures, and nearly every other dramatic scene and incident that occurred in the area. They also successfully navigated the Green and Colorado Rivers in 1911, filming their journey. The film ran in the Kolb Studio in the Grand Canyon from 1915 until Emery's death in 1976. Now the Kolb Brothers' photographs and films run throughout numerous short and full-length films, most notably the Ken Burns' documentary, National Parks: America's Best Idea. Their story is also the subject of several books, including The Brave Ones, a collection of Kolb Brothers' journals and letters. Brimming with popularity, the Emery Kolb Collection receives visits from film producers, Grand Canyon enthusisiasts, and the general public on a near daily basis. Many patrons purchase commercials rights to use Kolb Brothers' materials in other productions, while others simply marvel in the amazing imagery or take home a reproduction for personal or research use.""
