Out From Las Vegas: Adventures A Day Awayis America's favorite guide to the great getaways and scenic trips just a day or less away from downtown Las Vegas. Author Florine Lawlor, a third-generation Nevadan, was born to write about the Silver State. Daughter of a gold miner who once worked at the now abandoned ghost town of Delamar, FlorineÕs grandfather, a pioneer Nevada railroad man, worked for Union Pacific. Geologist Andy Zdon, (Desert Summits A Climbing &amp; Hiking Guide to California and Southern Nevada, Geology of the Las Vegas Region) joined Florine on the update of this new edition.
 Listen to the wind in the spires of Cathedral Gorge or is that the voice of Mrs. GodbeÕs ghost riding over the hill from Bullionville? Look for lost diamonds in the McCulloughs or follow the old road to Alamo. Are there really unidentified flying objects in the evening skies above the remote Extra Terrestrial Highway or are those just members of the mysterious Groom Lake Flying Club? Pack the car, a cooler, and a copy of Out From Las Vegas and be prepared for an adventure for the entire family.
 ÒItÕs hot! Take a look a this gem of a book and begin planning at least a yearÕs worth of day or weekend trips in and around Nevada. I can guarantee youÕll be pleasantly surprised.Ó Nancy Gott, freelance writer/adjunct professor, University of Nevada, Las Vegas
