Desert geology and space to roam in a vast SoCal State Park

Along side all of the Roadside Geology guides, I pulled this one off the shelf as a reminder of where I need to take the familia after the rains are over.

Excellent for the Non Geology Professional

This was my first "geology" book, and found Paul's book to be well written, interesting, humorous at times, and has singularly sparked my own interest in paleontology, geology and the Anza Borrego Desert Region. In the two years since I read this, I've devoured many other books of similar vein, looking for the pleasure that this book brought. A great read and field guide.
