To soak in a natural hot spring beneath a bazillion blazing stars is akin to stealing the creme filling outta the Oreos...and no one notices! Finding these special, out of the way places to soak -- off the beaten path -- is a triumph and a wonder. Thank you so much for fording the way into uncharted waters......

George's hot spring guides consistently rock the house!

His directions are always the best, his "two cents" comments are always appreciated, and his listing of springs is fairly comprehensive.

His other two hot springs books are great, as well.

"Hot Springs of Nevada" is a great guide to hot water in the Silver State. As expected, the book contains photos, descriptions and directions to help the soaker get to hot springs. Unlike Gersh-Young's "Hot Springs & Hot Pools of the Southwest" and the similar books that feature Nevadan hot springs, it is "George's 2 cents" that make this book essential. Similar books tend to be too objective, only indicating the cold hard facts like the temperature at which the water source may be at a particular location. Such quantifiable info doesn't give the reader an overall sense if it's a place one would actually want to visit. "George's 2 cents" provides a subjectively accurate evaluation to help the reader prioritize locations. It seems that this treasure is now out-of-print and going for exorbitant prices through Amazon's used sellers -the retail value was $10.95, when signed by the author. If you can afford it, "Hot Springs of Nevada" is an essential guide to the Silver State's hot springs.
