Guide to the Beautiful and Historic Lucerne Valley and Vicinity: 5

Bill Mann has written some of the most interesting Off Road travel books available. I have explored many of his extremely out of the way locations and learned the real history of the desert for my effort. His books will lead you to petroglyphs, mines, graves and the old historic trails. If you want to discover the real High Desert, then read Bill Mann and enjoy. One caveat is that the editions I used had some GPS coordinates which were not very accurate because they were taken before the military allowed for more precise readings. Use some careful analysis and a little searching and you will find the treasures he shares.
