Introduction
This project is a documentation of Enchanting the Desert, a digital project authored by Nicholas Bauch and published by Stanford University Press in 2016. Included here is information describing and cataloging the development, content, interface, technology, press, and reception of the project."Originating from the Spatial History Project within the Center for Spatial and Textual Analysis at Stanford, Nicholas Bauch's Enchanting the Desert is a careful examination of Henry Peabody's early-twentieth-century slideshow of the Grand Canyon. By placing this study within the spatial framework of the Canyon itself, and embellishing Peabody's slideshow with rich overlays created through GIS mapping and virtual recreations of the canyon topography, Bauch has created a digital prototype for studying historical and cultural geography."
