The Sun Worshippers

The great deserts of the American South-West are among the fastest expanding in the USA, attracting sun-lovers from the East coast, Mid-West and Canada. With the population boom comes massive investment and some remarkable new technology, but little general awareness of the real spiritual potential of the desert. The vast Sonoran Desert is a place of fragile beauty that demands a special sensitivity from modern man. From the McMath solar telescope in Papago territory into the little-known Indian tributary of the Grand Canyon and across to an extraordinary new desert city, Everyman explores an evolving faith whose symbol is the sun.
