When many people think of Nevada, they think of Las Vegas, Area 51, and an unending, empty desert—but there’s a lot more to the Great Basin State than that. Author and dedicated Nevada aficionado Sydney Martinez has devoted many years to exploring the ultra-rural wonders of Nevada, and in Finding Nevada Wild, she helps fellow adventurers get to know an often-misunderstood state.
Written from the perspective of someone who has researched, visited, and experienced many of Nevada’s defining places, Finding Nevada Wild features chapters devoted to various interests and activities. Vivid photography accompanies personal stories and practical guidance to show why Nevada should be at the top of everyone’s must-experience list.
Key Features
Sections focusing on Nevada ghost towns and mining camps, darkness and quietness, camping, hot springs, great drives, rural bars, trails and streams, geology, and the people of Nevada
A personally curated list of the must-see places in ultra-rural Nevada that most people won’t ever know
Historical and first-person experiential insights into Nevada’s vast Indigenous, Basque, and Buckaroo legacies
Practical tips for navigating throughout some of the Lower 48’s most isolated places
Offering a combination of content and design that is as equally at home on a coffee table as it is serving as a guidebook for unforgettable adventures in Nevada's ultra-rurals, Finding Nevada Wild helps readers to discover the true essence of the Silver State.
