Grand Canyon Celebration: A Father-Son Journey of Discovery Hardcover - 1999
by Michael Quinn Patton
When his son Brandon was born, author Michael Quinn Patton began pondering how best to celebrate the day his son would become a man. As a sociologist, Patton was intrigued with the rich history of coming of age rites of passage for young men, dating to ancient tribal cultures. But as a humanist he was wary of contemporary men's movements and their stressing of new age spiritualities. This is the story of the Pattons' journey of discovery as they learn about history and geology, false spirituality, facing danger together, and what it means to be a man in today's world. Illustrated with original tribal drawings.
