Exploring Death Valley: Secret Places in the Mojave Desert Vol. V

$27.30 – TRADE – New

Sometimes secret places are in some of the most well-known places in our public lands. These secret places are kept a secret because there are groups or organizations that do not feel you, the reader of this very book, can be trusted with these secrets. In his beginnings, Death Valley Jim was a lot like those who read his books. He combed through piles of research, many of which lead to dead ends and poorly documented sites. He also encountered outright refusal from rangers and other “protectors” when asked about these secret places. This frustration and secrecy is what has motivated him to continue the Secret Places in the Mojave Desert series – to help others like him with a genuine love and interest in the desert and the many treasures that lie within it find them and enjoy them. Our National Parks, Preserves, Monuments, and Forests were created with the intent of preserving the special natural wonders they behold. They were created for all of us to enjoy and explore! But how can these places be truly enjoyed if some of their greatest wonders are being kept a secret from the public? Every American pays taxes – and a portion of those taxes is used to preserve our national lands. And every American should be allowed to enjoy every square foot of them. This book focuses on the “secret” places within Death Valley National Park, and surrounding areas. You will not be able to find many of these locations in any other publication because they have been so fiercely protected by the powers that be. It is expected this book will be met with much criticism and resistance from many, but it is Jim’s hope that just as the lovers of the desert and its history always have, they will continue to respect these natural and anthropological wonders. “Take only pictures and memories, leave only footprints.”

Death Valley in ’49

$8.78 – TEXTBOOK – Used

St. Albans, Vermont is near the eastern shore of Lake Champlain, and only a short distance south of “Five-and-forty north degrees” which separates the United States from Canada, and some sixty or seventy miles from the great St. Lawrence River and the city of Montreal. Near here it was, on April 6th, 1820, I was born, so the record says, and from this point with wondering eyes of childhood I looked across the waters of the narrow lake to the slopes of the Adirondack mountains in New York, green as the hills of my own Green Mountain State.

Who Killed Chester Pray?: A Death Valley Mystery

$10.46 – TEXTBOOK – Used

Written in the newly recognized nonfiction genre of historical reconstruction, Who Killed Chester Pray? transports the reader to a last, grand hurrah of the American West. Seeking his fortune in the early 1900s, young prospector-assayer Chester Pray filched a Nevada sheriff’s horses, stole gold belonging to a U.S. Senator, and ultimately discovered one of the richest lodes ever in Death Valley. Then, Pray was shot dead in the night.By who? Why? As many as seven individuals had ample cause to kill Chester Pray. His new partners? Gunslinger “Diamondfield Jack”? Even pretty Clara, his fiancée? The psychologically compelling answer is not what you would expect.”Who Killed Chester Pray? provides new and revealing information about one of Death Valley’s most provocative unsolved mysteries. Author Nicholas Clapp’s intensive research and use of a flowing narrative result in a wonderfully readable book that not only probes the dark side of human nature, but presents an exciting picture of the American mining West of the early 20th century.”–Linda Greene, coauthor, A History of Mining in Death Valley National Monument

Appealing The Death Sentence of Valley Fever: Quality of Life Through Observations from Author & Valley Fever Survivor D. Waters

$9.33 – TRADE – Used

The sole reason for writing this book was to show others living with Valley Fever that change is possible. The medical professionals weren’t giving me good solutions and didn’t have an answer. Medication wasn’t working. Yet, I knew I could do better which would make me feel better. Believe me, at first every day was a struggle with my Coccidioidomycosis symptoms. This book is my personal experience and details my journey back to health and how I went from sitting on the couch watching life pass me by to living a life as good or better than before I was diagnosed. The changes that I implemented are offered to you so you can try them for yourself. Nothing in this book is complicated and I am compelled to share this information so you too can take charge of your Valley Fever treatment. Read it for yourself, and make it your own. If you are living in pain and despair because of Valley Fever like I was, what do you have to lose? See if these small changes work for you, like they worked for me, and start your journey back to health.
