Customer Reviews

Sessions Wheeler knows Nevada

This book is written by a Nevadan who has spent his life in rural Nevada. He knows of what he speaks. This book tells the surprisingly full story of the history of this desert. It ends around 1975, however, so it does not include important events such as Burning man or land speed records.

Nevada's Balck Rock Desert

A good read! Gives a a nice over view of the regions history. However, it should be updated with a little spot on the Burning Man project, and other activities that have taken place out there. I read the book while I was in the Black Rock looking for a Geocaching.com project. A more perfect book, I think you couldn't find.
