A comprehensive guide to Tucson and surrounding areas with hundreds of lodging, dining, and recreational recommendations. Explore the friendly, laid-back, border city of Tucson with this comprehensive addition to the Great Destinations series. This place of red deserts, awe-inspiring mountains, and cactus forests is also replete with history: Tucson was originally settled by ancient Native American peoples, Spanish explorers, and Anglo frontiersmen, and their legacy is clearly evident. While the Tucson area holds special appeal for naturalists, hikers, and birdwatchers, there are countless outdoor recreation options available—everything from ballooning to trail riding on horseback—and myriad indoor options like museums and galleries, music and dance performances, too. Tucson’s world-class resorts and spas, along with its top-rated golf courses, make it one of the best relaxation destinations in the country. And there’s no better Sonoran food north of the Mexican border than here in the Old Pueblo. Tucson offers something for everyone. Detailed maps and the author’s selective recommendations make this book a must-have for travelers and residents alike.

University of Arizona alumni miss old spots like the Varsity, while long-gone haunts like Gus & Andy's attracted a unique crowd of businessmen, movie stars and the occasional mobster. Join local food writer Rita Connelly as she serves up savory stories of good food and good company from the gone but never forgotten favorites of the Old Pueblo.

An inspiring children's book written from a mother to her daughter about all the "life lessons" she hopes to teach her. From how to treat the new kid at school, to winning with humility and losing with grace, realizing that you are much stronger than you think you are, learning to love your body in all it's phases, and understanding that all the best people are a little weird (and it's GOOD to be weird!). This book gives children a firm foundation of how to be confident with themselves and provides tips for what to do when life gets a bit hard or scary. The author is quoted saying, "I wanted to write a simple yet powerful children's book about raising good humans. I often asked myself what I hope my daughter remembers when she looks back on her childhood; my hope is that it is some of these "lessons." This book came to me so naturally because of my own experiences as a mom. Life can be hard and in our performance driven society, we need more emphasis on love and kindness than test scores and athletics. These little people are our future and it's important to me that they understand their infinite worth and potential."
