Essence of Tucson: The Story

"Essence of Tucson captured my attention from the very beginning. Even after living in this region for more than 30 years, I found myself wanting to revisit old forgotten places and explore new local destinations. I was yearning to be a better citizen. Equally surprising was the author's story and her journey through this sacred land. Powerful and mesmerizing. Every resident and student of Tucson should add this book to their library!"—PAUL C. BELLOWS (Author, Business Broker)
