Synopsis "Desert Soliloquy Second Edition"

After living alone in a cave for twenty-nine months in the desolate Avawatz Mountain Range, David shares with readers hysterically funny yarns about how he dealt with tarantulas, excessively annoying tourists, traveling preachers, boot-stealing desert varmints, foul water, a hungry owl forty feet tall, irate fathers, and sheriff deputies in hot pursuit of him. The memoir is written with a unique voice well-suited for story-telling, and includes original research of the USA Southwest and the Mojave Desert.The history within this memoir includes the trials and travails of the "two-gun fighters" Robert Hollimon and Matt Burts; assorted cow detectives and range riders; the ghost of an upset payroll robber, severed Paiute heads; train robbers; bootleggers; the Death Valley Lee Brothers, and more. New Content in the Second Edition: 33 image plates have been added showing sites I visited, as well as images from historical newspaper clippings.A Second Epilogue has been added regarding my life twenty years later.Minor corrections to Edition One have been corrected, and noted.Appendix II is dedicated to "two-guns man" Matt Burts (bootlegger; gun-for-hire; train robber).Appendix III is dedicated to "two-guns man" Bob Hollomon.Appendix IV for Avawatz adventurers to visit a spring I mentioned in Edition One.Appendix V holds general history with sources of the area.A Reading List, which lists some of my research source books that are currently available.
