Mojave Road Guide: New Edition Available

The Mojave Desert Heritage and Cultural Association (MDHCA) is releasing the fourth edition of the Mojave Road Guide on April 17, 2010.  This significantly revised, expanded edition includes new maps and GPS coordinates.  The road log has been updated to reflect changes that have occurred in the decade since the last edition.

This is the original guide written and revised by historian Dennis Casebier and volunteers devoted to preserving the history of the Mojave Desert.  Mr. Casebier rediscovered the historic wagon road over thirty years ago and organized the Friends of the Mojave Road to develop it as a recreational 4WD trail in the early 1980s.

You can purchase a copy of the new Guide directly from the Mojave Desert Heritage and Cultural Association by mail order. Click here, select the book, print the order form, and mail it with your check. Proceeds support the ongoing nonprofit activities of the MDHCA, including publication of this Guide.

If you prefer to purchase it online, the Web site DesertUSA also has copies available in their bookstore.
