From "the Thoreau of the American west," essays on the unique characteristics of American desert landscapes (Larry McMurtry, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Lonesome Dove).

In this wise and lyrical book about landscapes of the desert and the mind, Edward Abbey guides us beyond the wall of the city and asphalt belting of superhighways to special pockets of wilderness that stretch from the interior of Alaska to the dry lands of Mexico.
