Sierra Nevada Byways: 50 Backcountry Drives For The Whole Family
Adventure-driving expert Tony Huegel, who grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area, has a lifelong history of exploring far off the beaten path. Before embarking on extensive travels through the wildlands of the American West for his acclaimedBackcountry Bywaysguidebook series, Tony hitchhiked and road freight trains cross-country several times, thumbed his way to Alaska, drove a 1965 VW bug to Guatemala in the midst of its civil war, and "autostopped" his way alone across North Africa and Europe. He paused just long enough to earn a bachelor's degree in journalism at the University of California, Berkeley. Since then he's been a full-time news reporter, photographer, editor, author and magazine freelancer.--This text refers to theSpiral-boundedition.
