REVIEWS  

"A new take on the Southwest . . . like a breath of fresh air . . . kept me enthralled from cover to cover. . . . This is a book that . . . campers and hikers may want to keep under the front seat of their SUV, the next time they head off looking for adventure in the western states.

The book is a steal at $24.95 and it reminded me of why I moved to the Southwest in the first place, and as I read it, I resolved to do more camping and hiking, and less staying-at-home."

— Gaye Brown de Alvarez, THE INDEPENDENT, Gallup, NM

". . . a visual delight and an encyclopedic treasure, even for veteran desert dwellers accustomed to first-rate natural histories and Arizona Highways photography.¼ Written, photographed, and published by Tucson ecologist Thomas Wiewandt, this is a labor of love that took more than 12 years to produce.¼ And the quality shows."

— Lee Allen, TUCSON WEEKLY

THE SOUTHWEST INSIDE OUT . . . not only manages to look different [from the plethora of photographic books about the Southwest], it invites the reader to linger over it, read the copy, search photos for hidden details, return to a page already read. . . . The authors have a pleasing knack for presenting surprising information that is automatically informative. . . . useful to travelers, and, most of all, a stunning visual delight.

— Martin Naparsteck, THE SALT LAKE TRIBUNE

. . . a stunning new book that tackles the American Southwest with an all-in-one approach. On the surface, an overview of the southwestern landscape, the book also incorporates travel tips, legends, history, prehistory, ecology, and geology in an enticing blend that is always interesting, always eye-catching.

— Hazel Wheaton, LAPIDARY JOURNAL

Useful for the student as well as the tourist, this illustrated guide is highly recommended for all public libraries.

— LIBRARY JOURNAL

Breathtaking in scope while meticulous in detail, this book delivers on many levels. Whether you are a geologist, photographer, or curious traveler, this stunning collection of words, photographs, and illustrations is a delightful surprise that educates and entertains.

—Art Wolfe, photographer and author of more than forty books on natural history

In a labor of love, the authors have created a beautifully produced book of superb photos and engaging description that reveals the authentic and exciting story of the Southwest landscape. It will open your eyes to the wonders of this region.

—William K. Hartmann, planetary scientist; author of
• The History of Earth
• Desert Heart: Chronicles of the Sonoran Desert
