Lonely Planet Carolinas

Writing every word of every edition of this action-packed guide to the American Southwest, I’ve spent more than twenty years driving and hiking the region’s deserts and canyons. I love the exhilarating wilderness trails of Zion and Canyonlands national parks, and still swoon every time I see Monument Valley, as pictured here.The history too has always fascinated me, from the ongoing Native American presence in New Mexico and Arizona to the Wild-West romance of towns like Wyatt Earp’s Tombstone or Billy the Kid’s Lincoln.I’m currently working on a new edition, for publication in 2013.

Lonely Planet

Georgia & The Carolinas

First edition, 2019. 384 pages.

For the first edition of this comprehensive guide, I was responsible for writing and researching the central and western regions of North Carolina.

My journeys took me to cities like Asheville (“Beer City”), Durham and Raleigh, as well as cruising down the Blue Ridge Parkway and mountain biking in the Smokies.
