About this audiobook
This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. Mountains and Deserts cross eight regions: the Appalachian, Alaska's peaks, the Cascades, the Rockies, the Sierra Nevada, and the four great deserts of the Southwest. Each chapter pairs the real history with the superstitions that grew out of it: lost gold, mountain gods, desert lights, survival stories that became legend.
Inside you'll find:
- The Lost Dutchman's Mine and the lost gold of the Superstition Mountains
- The Donner Party and the survival stories that became legend in the Sierra
- Mountain gods, desert lights, and the spirits that guard the high passes
- The Great Basin, Mojave, Sonoran, and Chihuahuan deserts and their haunted corners
- Eight regions, from the Appalachian spine to the Alaska Range
Each chapter follows the same easy structure: the place, the real history, and the stories people tell about it. Told straight, no embroidery.
Perfect for hikers, campers, and anyone who has ever looked at a mountain and wondered what is up there.
