Clicking on a link takes you to the amazon.com website for the
book. Note: We do not make money off of these links to
amazon.com--I'd prefer it if you went to your local independent bookseller or your
local public library. I can't vouch for all of these books, but I
think they (may be) are worthwhile. Cadillac Desert is a
must-read though.

Want to
'read' Cadillac Desert and Last Oasis without
actually reading them? Try the PBS documentary Cadillac Desert. The
documentary is quite good and I highly recommend it. Watch it even
if you've read Cadillac Desert, or vice-versa.
