Sunset Magazine Finds A Great New Book About California!
This is a multimedia production, featuring two compact discs or cassette tapes meant to be played on your car audio system as you tour.The recordings tell five fictional tales-set in the Anza-Borrego Desert, FortBragg, Santa Cruz, the Sierra Nevada and the San Joaquin Valley-that makethe charming acommpinaments to drives thruogh their respective regions. Along with the cassettes or CD's, the boxed set comes with Golden StateTrivia and The Nature of California, a primer to california habitats.

An irresistible gem, a treasure for the whole family.
This box-book-audio package tempts everyone who comes into my home, child and adult alike, and in moments they're lost among the tales, the drawingsby the author and the authentic knowledge of California's variety oflandscape, flora and fauna.Especially enchanting is the lore of what thestate was before populations grew and folk history was lost.The storiesPhila Rogers tells on the tapes/Cds capture the texture and color ofexperiences unique to a lifetime spent in different parts of the state. All who read and hear the contents are struck by the wonderful detail andclarity.Best of all, the box is fun, the outside covered in a map of thestate.Open the leather loop and you're inside what feels like a present. This magical box was put together with so much devotion and careful detailthat it feels like a personal gift.And what a gift to give for Christmasor a birthday. I've never seen anything quite as unique, for all ages, forpersons in the state or outside.I pick it up and re-read or listen againto the tapes and I can be swept into the atmosphere Phila Rogers writesabout.I'm proud to have California Tales in my library.When people askwhere they can buy a copy, I tell them Amazon.com!

A "must have" for the family road trip.
I was amazed at how complete this boxed set really was.The books are very informative and well illustrated.We popped in theCD on our way to the Sierra. I learned more about the natural and human history ofCalifornia in that one trip than I had in all of my years in school. ... Read more

Historical Washington DC -- A Primer
As a child growing up in Washington DC, I had the privilege of meeting Bryson Rash at the old WMAL Studios at Military Road & Connecticut Ave NW during his "Tailwaggers" show.At that time in the late '40's early 50's, he would launch into one of his historical anecdotes which would leave even jaded native Washingtonians in bewildered awe.

New age tripe
Have you ever met a person where every single thing that happens to them is a spiritual awakening?The kind of person that can't go to the bathroom without making some sort of journal entry of the new vistas they discovered?Well that is the kind of mentality you get with this book.You can't simply look at a sunset and be in awe of nature or God.No you need to relate to it and make it a part of you.
Comforting and Unsettling
There's something both comforting and unsettling in Mr. Dispenza's book and I think that's the point.When we take a journey we learn about the world and we learn about ourselves. We leave the comfortable and we enter the unknown.What we do with this experience, what we come home with emotionally, determines who we are not just as writers, but as people. The Way of the Traveler helps you explore how you experience locations.
