Sahara, Jordan, and American Southwest

By Joseph Solomon

Desert Treks: Sahara, Jordan, and American Southwest is a first-person journey across three of the world's most iconic desert landscapes. From the endless seas of sand in the Sahara, to the myth-laden cliffs of Wadi Rum and Petra, to the red rock canyons and mesas of the American Southwest, the narrative immerses the reader in landscapes of silence, danger, survival, and surprising abundance.
More than a travelogue, this is a meditation on endurance, solitude, and companionship. The author shares intimate encounters with Tuareg nomads, Bedouin storytellers, and Navajo and Pueblo guides, weaving their voices into a deeply personal exploration of what deserts reveal about humanity. Alongside tales of survival, storms, and long walks under merciless suns, the book uncovers the desert as both harsh teacher and profound companion-a place where generosity matters, stories carry weight, and silence teaches lessons words cannot.
Equal parts memoir, cultural reflection, and adventure narrative, Desert Treks invites readers to walk step by step through landscapes where the horizon deceives, the stars blaze brighter than anywhere on earth, and the simplest gift-water shared, a song sung, tea poured-becomes sacred.
