Lake Powell is dying but this is not a dour story of climate disaster. "Life After Dead Pool" is the story of how one of America's most famous and controversial reservoirs is on its deathbed just sixty years after being constructed. It is also a story of how the Colorado River and Glen Canyon are being reborn. Podmore, as a kayaker, journalist, author, and lifelong resident of the Southwest gives an original account of Glen Canyon' s resurrection.
