About this book

Discusses the history, legends, and people involved with Area 51, the top-secret research installation located a hundred miles north of Las Vegas which has served as the test site for spy planes and stealth fighter planes, and which many people suspect is the location for toxic chemicals, UFOs, and alien spacecraft being hidden by the federal government.

Driving by memory

William L. Fox

Road trips to Las Vegas are the occasion for this entertaining meditation on the quintessentially American experience of driving across the desert. William Fox, successively exiled from California, Nevada, and New Mexico, has spent more time than most of us driving to Las Vegas - and he has taken notes on three recent trips, his own way of bringing cohesion to the vast and mind-numbing aspects of the freeway. Approaching the most post-modern city on the planet from three directions, he examines the landscape and what we do to it while also trying to figure out who he is, what that means, and the nature of the transformations of land into landscape through art and architecture, landscape design, and advertising. Fox's history of the region, both natural and cultural, highlights the creep of the urban supergrid across the most extensively traveled desert in the world.
