Bill Mann and the Mojave Desert,
This review is from: Guide to the Beautiful and Historic Lucerne Valley and Vicinity (Paperback)
Bill Mann has written some of the most interesting Off Road travel books available. I have explored many of his extremely out of the way locations and learned the real history of the desert for my effort. His books will lead you to petroglyphs, mines, graves and the old historic trails. If you want to discover the real High Desert, then read Bill Mann and enjoy. One caveat is that the editions I used had some GPS coordinates which were not very accurate because they were taken before the military allowed for more precise readings. Use some careful analysis and a little searching and you will find the treasures he shares.

This is a great book if you love to explore the desert. The author describes off the beaten path places that you can explore. I love this book as it directs you to places that I have heard about but haven't been able to find directions to. If you love the Lucerne Valley buy this book, you will love it. When I recieved it I couldn'y put it down. It is full of facts and local history. I look forward to visiting some of these spots this winter.
