From W.W.Norton & Company Explorations. John Annerino has spent most of his life exploring the American West and Old Mexico - as a photojournalist, adventurer, and scholar of Southwestern history. Among many explorations by foot, raft, rope, camera, and pen, John has documented indigenous ceremonies and people from Chiapas to the Colorado Plateau, worked as a Grand Canyon boatman and a wilderness guide, and fought fires as a heli-tac crew boss in Alaska and the West. Tracing ancient Indian paths, John ran the length of the Grand Canyon by three different routes and recounted his harrowing adventures in Running Wild. Those journeys, and later a 750 mile run from Mexico to Utah across daunting Arizona badlands, were the foundation for John to lead the first modern crossing of the treacherous Camino del Diablo, "Road of the Devil," on foot, mid-summer, recounted in Dead in Their Tracks. ©Copyright 2008 John Annerino Photographs.
