内容简介

Deep in the heart of the Sonoran Desert lies an oasis of ebony mountains, golden poppies, stately saguaros--and the organ pipe cactus, "a prickly octopus turned on its head." Located in southwestern Arizona on the Mexican border, Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument is an isolated park that for Carol Ann Bassett has long been a place of solitude. In this book she introduces readers to the park's natural and cultural heritage while Michael Hyatt visually documents its subtle beauty.
