When I was asked to follow up Weird Texas by gathering offbeat reconnaissance from the Grand Canyon State, I grabbed the wheel of the first rental car I could find and stepped on the gas. With a sack full of clean T-shirts and aerosol cheese, I zig-zagged my way from city to suburb, to high desert and back again, recording all my peculiar encounters along the way.

I saw dinosaurs, found long-forgotten tombs, met eccentric characters and tip-toed through haunted relics. I uncovered century-old photographs of vigilantes giving a corpse his last drink of whiskey, dug up the history on a cave of death turned into a tourist attraction, and sat at the controls of a Cold War ICBM. And it's all here in this full-color, hardbound roadside travel guide.

Praise for Weird Arizona:

Hey there,

I'm probably 3/4 done with the book and all I have to say [is] that it's my FAVORITE Arizona book ever! ... I thoroughly enjoyed every single story in that book, which is incredibly rare for me. Thank you for taking the time to explore my favorite state and printing all the weirdness of it on paper!

Always,

Jessica

More praise for Weird Arizona!

i just wanted to thank you for all your efforts! on a recent trip to arizona, i read 'weird arizona' from cover-to-cover each night until three a.m. in whatever motel room i happened to be staying at the time ... and found your aforementioned book to be not only fascinating but a treasure trove of information! i was actually more excited to read 'weird arizona' each night than i was to stay at the occasional haunted bed-and-breakfast, or explore the 'grand canyon state's' urban legendry.

many thanks for passing on your massive amounts of knowledge, fantastic photos and engaging stories!

i recommend your book to anyone seeking 'a real page turner!'

most sincerely,

paul bottini
