Books with author Rich Harris

Hidden Arizona perfectly epitomizes the Hidden travel guide philosophy. It is written for the new generation of back-road explorers who aren't looking to be herded to the same Grand Canyon viewing spot as everyone else but instead prefer to explore out-of-the-way sites and hotels as well as adventure travel choices like rafting the Grand Canyon, boating on Lake Havasu, and hiking Sedona's red-rock gorges. With great detail and a discriminating eye, the author covers the popular spots (large sections are dedicated to the Grand Canyon, Phoenix, and Sedona) but also tells of "hidden" areas just down the road that other guidebooks overlook. Hidden Arizona highlights the state's Wild West heritage, leading visitors to dude ranches, ghost towns, and places to buy Indian crafts. Dining reviews focus on restaurants serving Southwest cuisine and authentic Mexican food. Suggestions for outdoor adventures abound, with descriptions of 67 parks and wilderness areas including information on camping, hiking, boating, and horseback riding.

Be Not Blind to Its Touch - a contemporary novella for older teens. Whereas most books set in our real world are slanted for girls, this story centers on a boy – his issues, his anger – a youth on the threshold of manhood, unprepared to deal with a rage that threatens to consume him. Pete is a seventeen-year-old caught in a life of anger at his father who was convicted and sent to the penitentiary when Pete was eight. The past nine years have been filled with resentment at the town that has taunted him as the son of a jailbird. The words 'you’re not welcome here' echo in his ears. But there are those who do care about him – who move in the shadows. And when Pete crosses the line, they fight desperately in a race against time to try to save him from the very real consequences of his lawless actions.

From overweight Christmas fairies to disgusting potions that turn you invisible to a baby who cannot stop eatinganything he sees – this book has it all!

Hidden Arizona perfectly epitomizes the Hidden travel guide philosophy. The author covers with great detail and a discriminating eye the popular spots (witness large sections dedicated to the Grand Canyon, Phoenix and Sedona) but also tells of hidden spots just down the road that travellers would overlook or skip were it not for the guide's detailed descriptions and specific recommendations.
