Water is the principle, or the element of things. All things are water…So begins the story of “The Colorado”, the mighty river, which is now a mighty 400? page coffee table book that is a feast for the eyes, heart and head. It started as a documentary film envisioned by filmmaker Murat Eyuboglu who partnered with local author, river and hiking guide, paleontologist and Wonder Woman, Christa Sadler to express the storied history and future perils of the life of the Colorado River. Its course, and the course of its inhabitants and the politics it has influenced are revealed in a comprehensive invigorating text with rich imagery.
