hey folks,
You should come check out Charles Bowden at Changing Hands Bookstore in Tempe on June 23rd. He's a journalist and environmental writer from Tucson. Think Hunter S. Thompson meets Edward Abbey-- brilliant stuff. He's written numerous books and publishes articles everywhere from Arizona Highways to Harpers. His latest book "Some of the Dead are Still Breathing" is a must read.

"Killing the Hidden Waters" and "Frog Mountain Blues" are both on that list, as well!

Oh, that should be interesting! Wish I could go! His books are very interesting, and are on numerous topics, also. Mt. Lemmon, Mexico and the drug trade, etc. He was a good friend of Ed Abbey, and is said to be one of few people who actually know where ol' Ed is buried, out there in the Cabeza Prieta.
