"French worked hard to make his huge Lincoln a man and not a god. This is one rumpled icon. The imperfections are hard to miss. His hair is uncombed. His tie is askew. His hands betray a fidgety disposition, and his eyes aren't quite symmetrical."

"Box Canyon was not formed by seepage over time. Instead, they say, a massive flood about 45,000 years ago carved it violently and much more quickly." No sign of an Ark, though.

I want to tell you about a great new book that has one forgivable flaw, which I’ll mention at the end. But first, a word from Bizarro Land. This is about the Grand Canyon.
To answer that question briefly, it is really really old if you mean "how old are the oldest rocks that are exposed by the Grand Canyon," and it is probably just a few million years old (5 or 6 by some estimates) if you mean "how long did the canyon itself take to form."
Wait, there's a dam in the Grand Canyon? Why don't we just leave these rivers alone!!!!
