APACHE TRAIL by Richard L. Powers

President Theodore Roosevelt once referred to the Apache Trail as “one of the most spectacular best-worth-seeing sights of the world.” This ancient, narrow foot trail was originally upgraded to serve as a supply road for the construction of Roosevelt Dam. Later designated as a state highway, the Apache Trail still retains the majestic scenic vistas and historical grandeur that so impressed TR many decades ago.

In this brand new IMAGES OF AMERICA release, Globe author and former ADOT district highway engineer, Rick Powers, chronicles the fascinating history of the Apache Trail with more than 200 vintage images gathered from various corporate and private collections.
