"'He
utilized every opportunity to collect interviews from
old-time desert characters... No other book written
of this desert excels Here's Death Valley in readability;
few, if any, are more historically sound'

doubt it surpasses any other volume yet published on
Death Valley for sheer entertainment and readability.
It grips the reader with a spellbound interest... a
literary classic...a finished and artistic contribution
to historical literature and, as such, will endure…"
