Over the Edge: Thrilling Real-Life Adventures in the Grand Canyon

by Larry Vardiman

What started as informal treks to the awesome splendor of the Grand Canyon by members of the Institute for Creation Research has grown into a popular excursion for many across the country, from all backgrounds. Dr. Larry Vardiman recounts his memorable trips to this "evidence for a worldwide flood," as he leads groups of adventurous tourists up and down the craggy cliffs. Written with humor, this book also points to a reverence for God's Word. By balancing the rugged beauty of this immense canyon with an acknowledgement of past judgment, Vardiman presents a complete picture of our natural surroundings.
