I was just thinking about a place where we could share books that we liked about Nevada.

Jack, how does the wheeler book on the black rock compare to the Dobbs book. We have the Dobbs book, just wondering if the second book is worth buying.
This makes me think of another book that I don't have on my bookshelf but is a great read and gives a lot of insight to the area around Reno.While not necessarily a "trail book" about Nevada, I've always thought that John McPhee's "Basin and Range" is one of the best books written about any geographic location (this one happens to be a "geologico-sociological" study of the different small towns dotting Nevada's basin and ranges....
A really incredible read. One of may favs.
Cheers.

We just added these two to the book shelf:
Death Valley SUV trails
Author: Roger Mitchell
ISBN-10: 0970711506
ISBN-13: 9780970711502
High Sierra SUV Trails Vol. 1: the East Side
Author: Roger Mitchell
ISBN-13: 9780970711519
ISBN: 0970711514
We'll probably be adding more of his books to the collection, they look to be very detailed and informative.
For general trail guides in the Sierras, the Roger Mitchell books cannot be beat. He has been 4wheeling the Sierras since the 50s and is still alive today, living in Oakhurst. I love the facts and bits that go into every book. I've learned more about Death Valley from his books than all of the literature from the Park Service combined.
