I'd like to mention a new book hitting the stores called THE ULTIMATE DESERT HANDBOOK, (ISBN # 007139303X ). I've read preliminary chapters and it is one comprehensive book! It covers both U.S. and worldwide deserts with loads of information on desert hiking, backpacking, vehicle travel and even animal transport, and has chapters on camping and hiking gear, clothing, first aid, navigation, wildlife observation, desert hazards and illnesses, and more. More information can be found at: www.ultimatedeserthandbook.com

Looks to be a good book! I like the part about:
Quote:
Taking great photographs in desert light – Using film and digital technology in the desert

Transport preparation, maintenance, and driving techniques – from camels to 4WD vehicles


Thanks for the info!

The write-up on Amazon is likewise appealing...
