I have thoroughly enjoyed this cookbook & unlike other cookbooks that I have purchased I have acutally made the recipes instead of just reading them!

1.Each tour is really a series of tours starting with a short route and then extending it. This lets the rider decide how far he wants to ride instead of being constrained by a single route. 2.I've used the routes around Tucson and found the descriptions to be accurate and detailed. Many of the routes came from the Tucson Chapter of the Greater AZ Bike Assn and are still used on the club's rides. 3.About 25% of the rides are close to Tucson. Routes further from Tucson include multi-day tours in the southern part of AZ going right to the border with Mexico.

I'd like to read your book on the internet. Please show me your book's contents . Thank you.

This book provides color photographs, in-depth descriptions, and migration/nesting habits of many birds in the southwestern US.

Bird species include water birds, birds of prey, hummingbirds, songbirds, etc. that residents or visitors to the southwest may encounter.

The book is very well organized and is useful as a quick reference when viewing birds.

This is a double book written by one of Arizona's greatest ranchers. Set in Northern Mexico in the 1930's and Northern Arizona in the 1940's, it tells of some of the great old ranches. Some of these old Cowpunchers are still around after all these years! A great read.

The Bounty Hunter's Daughter is an incredible book and I didn't want it to end. Delphinia Estes is a strong heroine, with all the odds against her. What I thought at first would be a basic revenge western, became an intricately plotted novel, that keeps unfolding all kinds of hidden secrets. Phyllis de la Garza is an amazing, gifted writer. A classic western novel!

A useful book covering the butterflies of Arizona. It is about the same physical dimensions as the Sibley Guide to Birds - a little large for a field guide, but still manageable.

The book is comprised of species descriptions on the left hand side of each facing pair of pages, with beautiful full color photographs of the relevant species on the right hand page. No more flipping between various sections of the book to match text and photos! The species descriptions include distribution within Arizona and general distribution in neighboring states, flight time, description, habitats, host plants and similar species.

There is also a small section on larvae, predators, and parasites.

This book is quite an achievement, I recommend it wholeheartedly.

Butterflies of Southeastern Arizona is an extraordinatilly complete and well researched guidebook to the butterflies of this rich and diverse area. I would highly recommend it to anyone with a serious interest in lepidoptera or the Southwest.

Marty Kreipe de Montano has modernized one of the classic characters found in the oral tradition of many Native American cultures.

In this story, Coyote leaves the Potawatomi reservation and heads for the Big Apple, where he gets a job as Rodent Control Officer in the World Trade Center. But he never really gets used to living in Manhattan, with its noise and crowded streets. Homesick, he finds comfort in looking at the stars. One is so beautiful, he falls in love with her. They dance together in the sky. But he gets cold and lonely and begs the star to let him go. And so she does: for four days and nights, he tumbles to earth, where he lands in the middle of Central Park, creating what is now the reservoir. Now, when you hear the coyotes howling at night, know that they are hollering at the star which dropped their ancestor.

The charming illustrations are done by Tom Coffin. The author has also included several pages of information about the Potawatomi people (both she and Coffin are members of the Prairie Band Potawatomi). She also includes information on Coyote as trickster-hero. The story line of this book was adapted from the Klamath traditional tale of the origin of Crater Lake.

I recommend this book for young children.

The author has captured the essence of what it was like to be a broadcaster in a small town in the . . . 50's or 60's, perhaps? To anyone who survived working in radio before and during "Top 40", or in the early days of local television, this will ring a bell. Whimsical, funny, sometimes belly-laughing. Thompson evokes an era and reveals some behind-the-scenes hilarity. Read it with laughter but . . don't wake the neighbors!
