"California Desert Trails," is one man's love affair with the Mojave Desert. For Chase possessed the rare talent of seeing beauty where others perceived only serpents and sand. He found wisdom in unconventional places, with crazy hermits, wise Indians, and fellow wanderers adrift in the desert. Traveling slowly as he did on horseback, Chase was also able to observe the animals and plants that inhabited this dangerous, but delightful, world. The result is a book unlike any other in the history of equestrian travel. Amply illustrated with stunning black and white photographs which Chase took during his long ride, this poetic travel tale concludes with a special appendix, wherein Chase gives "Hints on Desert Traveling" to a new generation of Long Riders and desert travelers. |
