This guidebook was controversial when it first came out because it drew attention to a place coveted as mysterious, dangerous and reserved for experienced hardmen. Luckily the bare bones topos and descriptions of the lesser known climbs kept many routes mysterious. A good guidebook for the well traveled routes but not so much for the lesser known ones. With that said it does include some cool historical notes and profiles of well known Black Canyon climbers which makes for good toilet reading. A fine effort overall by the author.
