About the Author
Philip Varney is the author of highly regarded books on the ghost towns of Arizona and New Mexico and a writer for Arizona Highways magazine.
From Library Journal
Ghost town aficionados, Western history buffs, desert lovers, backroads wanderers--all will find Varney's guide interesting and useful. Over 50 sites are listed with readable histories, colorful descriptions, and detailed directions. The guide is arranged geographically in four sections from north (Inyo) to south (San Diego). Each section concludes with summary information, including topographic map references and road conditions. The enthusiasm with which Varney describes his topic is contagious. Readers will want to jump in their cars (four-wheel drive not needed) and go. Extremely readable and informative, and profusely illustrated with photos, maps, and drawings, this is recommended for all public libraries in Southern California and most major public libraries in the United States.
