Advance Praise
“Rick Quinn jumps off the interstate to guide
travelers on 25 brilliantly conceived road trips. Stunning images of
southwestern landscapes and landmarks nicely mix with his insights about
historic attractions and roadside treasures along the way.” — Doug
Kirby,

"Colorfully illustrated, this guide book by well-seasoned
traveler Rick Quinn covers Arizona and New Mexico quite well. Enough
detail is given about locations and drives to pique the interest and yet
not spoil the surprise. As a bonus, the maps are concise but detailed
enough to get you to the destination… Overall, I would highly recommend
this book by Rick Quinn.”–Jim Hinckley, author of Route 66:
America’s Longest Small Town
For those who may be passing through Arizona or New Mexico
on the way someplace else, it’s an inspirational guide to transforming
what would otherwise be a simple A-to-B journey into something special –
a road trip that takes you into the heart of the Desert
Southwest”–Peter Thody,
RoadTripAmerica.com
"It’s not a mirage, this wonderful book brings these
legendary, mythical desert regions to life in the best of ways, with
compelling stories, gorgeous images and useful information.”–Chris
Epting, author of James Dean Died

“Arizona and New Mexico: 25 Scenic Side Trips is a must-have
for travelers exploring the Southwest. Over 300 full-color photos
capture the true beauty of these two states.”–Ellen Robson, author of
Haunted Highway: The Spirit of Route
66
“As an experienced roadtripper, Quinn has gone beyond the
usual in this travel guide, providing important information before you
head out, such as when the road turns to dirt or when taking an RV is
not advised. Reading this has shown me how many more fascinating and
beautiful places I have yet to see. I can’t recommend this too highly.
Now my only quandary—which roadtrip to do first!: — Jaimie Bruzenak,
