Sedona is one of those places on earth that when you visit, you are touched by its ever changing beauty forever. This lovely offering is filled with spectacular photographs and natural history, recreation and historical information. Having visited Sedona many times, this book truly captures the essence of this unique piece of landscape that attracts so many people for its beauty, its mystical power and its outdoor activities.

By	S. Andrews (Portsmouth, NH) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This book is a must-have for every visitor to the Red Rock Country, resident, or lover of the majesty of this area. For $$$$$ this book is definitely the best deal out there! The full page, color photos are spectacular and the writing is intriguing. This is a memento of Sedona that will take you back to the beauty of this magical place no matter how far away you are.

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely Gorgeous, November 23, 2004

By	A. Jones "Mrs. G." (Virginia) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This book is a great "coffee table book." It's a nice gift to someone who has been to Sedona and misses it, as well it gives the pre-visitor to Sedona a decent idea of what to expect from Sedona visually. I only say "decent" because, well, Sedona is THAT beautiful. The book is done superbly and effeciently.

While my husband and I honeymooned in Sedona for 5 days in October, the weather changed dramatically from sunny, windy, rainy, dry, wet, humid, crisp and refreshing and back to sunny again. Nothing was ever ugly, or less than jaw-dropping, about it. Additionally, it is simply an interesting place to be because constantly, all day long, Sedona offers 360 degree views of something curious to look at. Even the buildings, shops, architecture, private homes are all somehow tickling to the senses. What keeps you focused is where the mountains are placed. It helps you to remember you're feet are still on earth.

This book, purchased while in Sedona, we felt was a good summary of that feeling. We hope you like it. ~~ Mr. & Mrs. G.
