While not a true photography book, America's Southwestern Treasures details and rates over 170 archaeological sites throughout the southwest.

If you're planning your first visit to the southwest, we've designated 30 "Must See" sites to help you make the most of your time there. On the other side of the coin, if you're a seasoned veteran of the southwest, the other 140 sites detailed in America's Southwestern Treasures will lead you to some of the more out of the way, less tourist heavy sites.

The book is available from our publisher, Createspace, by following the link above or on Amazon.

    It is a very nice source about pre Columbian ruins in the South West.

    Kudos to you and your dad, Chris!

    Yes, indeed they did, Chris.

    I enjoyed both of them.

    I am already thinking of another road trip in the back roads of the SouthWest.

    The bucket list is ever growing, if I've got any chance of finishing it, I need to get moving!

    How does Mule Canyon/House on Fire in the fall sound to you? :D

    I first saw my dad's photos from the area a while ago (he was still shooting film then!!) and it's been #1 on the bucket list since! Hope our schedules match up!

    In the meantime, I'll see about buying a game face, don't think I've got one in the camera bag yet! rolleyes1.gif

    Thank you for the kind words, Ian! :D

    In case anyone's wondering "what other book?" that Ian is refering too, the post is long burried and we've changed publishers since then so the links are no longer valid, but current info can be found here on my website.

    My copy arrived yesterday and I must say, I am enjoying reading about the many places that I've been and looking forward to seeing those I have not. Good work!
