(3) 4-6 In this photo-essay, Lourie follows the Rio Grande's 1,885-mile course to the sea, and provides thumbnail sketches of the history that transpired along its banks; Pueblo village life, silver mining, Billy the Kid, Pancho Villa, the Mexican-American War, and current border tensions are among the topics covered. Handsome color photos are interspersed with archival black-and-white photos.
