The Backbone of the World: A Portrait of the Vanishing West Along the Continental Divide: Having devoted much of his career to reporting on the American West, Frank Clifford decided to give himself a plum assignment: to explore much of the country along the 3,100-mile Continental Divide. The result is an arresting portrait of one of the last living links to an environment where people and nature are both endangered. Journeying from the Mexican border to the southern reaches of the Canadian Rockies, Clifford introduces readers to an array of characters. In each of their stories, the tide of change is looming as economic, social, and political forces threaten to erase this uniquely unfettered population.
