Since moving to the Southwest in the 1960s, Miller (On the Border, The Panama Hat Trail) has been inspired to write about the Sunbelt. This book gains momentum as it progresses through personal anecdotes, research, and newsworthy events both past and present. The balanced coverage touches on both the beauty of the desert and the plight of illegal immigrants. We learn about Eco-raiders who combat urban sprawl, Walter Swan's one-title bookstore, and the art of cockfighting. Residents, potential visitors, and armchair travelers alike will be captivated by Miller's informative and often humorous book, in which the romance and reality of the Southwest are intermingled within a fine narrative. Winner in 2001 of the Lowell Thomas Award for Best Travel Book of the Year.
