The Mojave Desert: The History and Legacy of North America’s Most Famous Desert explores the development of the Mojave from its formative years to the heterogeneous tract of land it is today. It also examines the native tribes who inhabited it and their complex relationships with the foreign explorers who traversed their territories. The book also dives into the desert's literal golden era and takes a tour through the desert's fabled Death Valley.

Poorly researched
Revisado: 12-01-18
As an Archaeologist who works in the Mojave, I found this book poorly researched and merely a regurgitation of two or three sources.The prehistory and especially the geology is so generic as to not to make sense. Little context is provided. Ecological and biological topics (which are the foundation to defining a region such as the Mojave) are presented at a grade school level. The book is more of a travel guide than any real discussion on the physical and biological attributes that define this region as the Mojave Desert.
