"These things are real: desert, rocks, shelter, legend" (Judith Fryer). Coyote's Canyon evokes the beauty and mystery of southern Utah's desert canyons--home to Navajo and to the Anasazi who came before, and spiritual homeland to the Coyote Clan, thousands of individuals who draw nourishment from this land. This collaboration between photographer John Telford and writer Terry Tempest Williams is an intimate meditation on one of the earth's most extraordinary landscapes. Telford's spectacular color photographs of the region's canyons, mesas, hidden waterways, arches, Anasazi cliff dwellings, and desert vistas are rich with the reflected ligh that elevates rock into sculpture. Tempest Williams' stories celebrate the legend and ritual surrounding this sacred place, creating a compelling new mythology for desert lovers--persons quietly subversive in the name of the land. Taken together, these photographs and words are an invitation, an initiation into the desert's sanctuary of secrets--Coyote's Canyon. photographs throughout

She’s not here to make friends. She’s here to make trouble. With her piercings, tattoos and spiky blond hair, Ellen Truesdale doesn’t quite fit in with the other folks in Coyote Canyon—and that’s just fine with her. She’s only here to put her father out of business, as payback for abandoning her when she was young. Or is she more interested in finally proving that she was worth keeping? Either way, she’s struggling to keep her rival well-drilling company afloat. And being a single woman in a male-dominated field has started to take a toll. So when Hendrix Durrant steps in to help, Ellen has no choice but to let him—even though he happens to be her father’s business partner and therefore her enemy. But the closer she works with him, the more she sees what she’s been missing…in life and love. And once she lets go of her anger long enough to learn the truth about her past, she might just find the family she’s always wanted.
