In 1968, the author and her husband moved from Cambridge, Massachusetts, to Chinle, Arizona, where he took up a job with the Navajo legal services program. This book presents her account about the places and people they came to love and the lessons they learned from their Navajo neighbours.
In 1968, newlyweds Lucy Moore and her husband moved from Cambridge, Massachusetts, to Chinle, Arizona, where he had taken a job with the recently created Navajo legal services program. They were part of a wave of young 1960s idealists determined to help others less fortunate than themselves. After fulfilling the two-year commitment with the legal program, Lucy and Bob stayed for another five years. ""Into the Canyon"" is her account of the places and people they came to love and the lessons they learned from their Navajo neighbours.
