Download or read book Desert Oracle written by Ken Layne and published by MCD. This book was released on 2020-12-08 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The cult-y pocket-size field guide to the strange and intriguing secrets of the Mojave—its myths and legends, outcasts and oddballs, flora, fauna, and UFOs—becomes the definitive, oracular book of the desert For the past five years, Desert Oracle has existed as a quasi-mythical, quarterly periodical available to the very determined only by subscription or at the odd desert-town gas station or the occasional hipster boutique, its canary-yellow-covered, forty-four-page issues handed from one curious desert zealot to the next, word spreading faster than the printers could keep up with. It became a radio show, a podcast, a live performance. Now, for the first time—and including both classic and new, never-before-seen revelations—Desert Oracle has been bound between two hard covers and is available to you. Straight out of Joshua Tree, California, Desert Oracle is “The Voice of the Desert”: a field guide to the strange tales, singing sand dunes, sagebrush trails, artists and aliens, authors and oddballs, ghost towns and modern legends, musicians and mystics, scorpions and saguaros, out there in the sand. Desert Oracle is your companion at a roadside diner, around a campfire, in your tent or cabin (or high-rise apartment or suburban living room) as the wind and the coyotes howl outside at night. From journal entries of long-deceased adventurers to stray railroad ad copy, and musings on everything from desert flora, rumored cryptid sightings, and other paranormal phenomena, Ken Layne's Desert Oracle collects the weird and the wonderful of the American Southwest into a single, essential volume.
Book Synopsis Exploring the Superstitions by : John Annerino
Download or read book Exploring the Superstitions written by John Annerino and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2018-02-06 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arizona’s Superstition Mountains are like no other mountain range in the continental United States. The ancestral ground of the western Apache and sacred heights of the neighboring Pima, these mountains were once a veritable no-man’s land of soaring cliffs, dead-end box canyons, and eerie hoodoos of stone, marking them as one of the last places on earth that any person would dare to tread. While this range appears on the surface to be a veritable nature lover’s paradise with towering saguaro cactus forests, desert wildflowers, and roadrunners, it is also home to rattlesnakes, plants and animals that stick, sting, or bite, and modern gun-toting, dry-gulchers. In fact, in the last century, the Superstition Mountains have claimed the lives of more than 500 visitors, marking it as the West’s deadliest wild area. Part hiking guide, part history book, Superstitions: Hiking the Ghost Trails of Mystery Mountain vividly brings the supernatural beauty, mystery, and majesty of this unique area to life.Within the pages of Superstitions, readers will first be swept up in the legends of the Superstition Mountains, encountering colorful historical characters such as 1840s gold prospectors, brave-hearted Apaches, and sly outlaws. Readers will encounter the native flora and fauna of the range, from poisonous rattlesnakes to rare flowers. And finally, an in-depth guide to every trail in the range, will satisfy even the most experienced of hikers.Including a foldout map and dozens of original photos, Superstitions belongs on the shelf, or in the backpack, of every history buff and every veteran hiker.

Download or read book Trails Southwest written by Diane M. Cece and published by . This book was released on 2018-09-21 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tom Lacey was a young man who lost his family during a raid by rustlers in the 1870's. Left alone to fend for himself, he sells his father's farm and becomes a drifter and fiddle foot. In his desperate pursuit for survival he becomes involved with a band of desperados, learns a fast draw, gains a reputation as the Nevada Kid, and flees with Smokey, a cowboy and drifter he befriends. After the robbery of the Kingston-Downey Express, the two sidekicks decided to find honest jobs while hiding out at a cattle ranch. Nevada had been shot through the left thigh by a pursuing posse, and taking on honest jobs was the only way Smokey could get his pard under cover and back on his feet again without getting captured. Buck Johnson was John O'Connor's ranch foreman. A tough disciplinarian who made the ranch hands tow the line. He took a dislike to the young new hire he thought was a no count farm boy. It was his job to straighten out the trouble maker and turn him into a worthy ranch hand. Tom Lacey and Samuel Embers were outlaws who split from the Younger Brothers Gang. Their handles were the Nevada Kid and Smokey. Seeking refuge at a cattle ranch, jobs are offered to these two sidekicks by the prominent rancher. Mr. O'Connor needed extra ranch hands for a cattle drive he had coming up. What the drifters didn't figure into the equation was the rancher's beautiful, innocent young niece, Polly Trainer, falling in love with the outlaw the Nevada Kid. She came from back East to live with her aunt and uncle and to teach at the local schoolhouse. Nevada's sidekick Smokey Embers had a very tough time keeping the beautiful girl from controlling his partner's soul and destiny. Polly was the one witness to the robbery of the express who carried enough evidence against the two reformed outlaws to get them into Yuma prison or worse hanged.
Book Synopsis Coronado's Children by : J. Frank Dobie
Download or read book Coronado's Children written by J. Frank Dobie and published by . This book was released on 1978-11 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written in 1930, Coronado's Children was one of J. Frank Dobie's first books, and the one that helped gain him national prominence as a folklorist. In it, he recounts the tales and legends of those hardy souls who searched for buried treasure in the Southwest following in the footsteps of that earlier gold seeker, the Spaniard Coronado. "These people," Dobie writes in his introduction, "no matter what language they speak, are truly Coronado's inheritors.... l have called them Coronado's children. They follow Spanish trails, buffalo trails, cow trails, they dig where there are no trails; but oftener than they dig or prospect they just sit and tell stories of lost mines, of buried bullion by the jack load... " This is the tale-spinning Dobie at his best, dealing with subjects as irresistible as ghost stories and haunted houses.
