I liked this book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
I looked at this in the book store, saw that the first 129 pages are just about Las Vegas, and almost didn't buy it. But it is a pleasure to read. We used it to choose an RV park along Rt 80 in Northern Nevada, and the discriptions just were funny. We saw things that we would not of had we not bought this book.
a great book about a great state

This book reveals the true character of the greatest state in the Lower 48. With Deke Castleman's wit and the solid updating skills of Nancy Keller and others, it's surely the most complete treatment of a rapidly overpopulating but still magical state. There's a lot more to Nevada than casinos, and from Jackpot to Laughlin, this book will take you to the real Nevada, and a taste of the disappearing American West.
An absolutely throughly enjoyable book to read.

This is easily the best guidebook I have ever had the joy of using. This book is fun to read. You can have fun reading it and not even go to any of the places. He is spot on on his story telling, making many places in the state that seem merely dry and dusty come alive with history and meaning. He will tell you why small towns like Austin exist. Towns that would by the looks of them have almost no purposeful existence. Most importantly, this book will change your perspective of this state. It is not jsut a gambling state. It is a place of immense beauty and fascinating geography. You may not want to live there, but this Moon Guide will make you want to visit there many many times. Five plus stars.
It's all here, including style.

Not only does this book contain an immense amount of information about the gorgeous and fascinating state of Nevada---but it is all presented in a personable, idiosyncratic, witty and winning style. As with most guidebooks, you'll probably be interested in reading only those sections relevant to a planned trip. But the book is so informative and fun, you might find yourself---as I did---reading sections about areas in Nevada you have no plans to visit. Highly recommended.
One of the best Nevada guidebooks!

Amusing and useful, well-laid out with honest reviews of both wilderness areas and the glitter gulches--I have used this book for several trips to Nevada and it is indespensible
