{"product_id":"9780890963326","title":"Red Hole in Time","description":"\u003cp\u003eEscalante Canyon is a red-walled hole in a geologic uplift (the Uncompahgre Plateau) in western Colorado. Pioneers surging west fell into this canyon hole the way gold nuggets get caught in the potholes of a stream. Like nuggets eddying against stone, they were shaped by the Canyon--rounded off, shattered, or tossed away, according to how they conformed or resisted. Indeed, treasure richer than gold settled into that hole in time; in the onrushing current of history the lifestyle--the Old West--settled and still survives there--in fact, in artifact, and in living memories. The tale of the canyon is a tale of struggle, change, frontier friendship, and enmity that is part of the story of the West itself: Anglo settlement; conflict between cowman, nester, and sheep man; epidemics; hardships; loneliness. Many of its stories, though, are tantalizing episodes unique to this place, laced with oddity and tragedy. Using as digging tools the camera, tape recorder, diaries, memoirs, and a hundred years of old newspapers, Marshall has mined more gold than the first prospectors ever suspected lay in that mysterious red hole.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Texas A \u0026 M University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48215180148971,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":60.33,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0758\/4484\/5803\/files\/9780890963326-1.jpg?v=1781645658","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.sg\/zh\/products\/9780890963326","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Singapore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
