In this chapter, the author looks at how a selected group of writers have been influenced by the scenic surroundings of southern Utah. He considers his topic under three general headings: first, pioneer diaries; second, the writings of scientists, and colorful promoters; and third, and in some ways the most important, southern Utah writers of the mid-twentieth century. This adds up to a regional approach to seeing nature and scenery that in its way is distinct from other ways of seeing. [From the text]
