Car Camping: The Book of Desert Adventures

Rating:
Summary: Great, funny book in laconic style
Review: This is an "On the Road" for the 1990's. Semi-autobiographical, Sundeen tools around the desert southwest in his beat-up Subaru having adventures and climbing on stuff. He also meets people and rolls his car onto its roof in a cataract canyon. A great ride!
(That anyone thought this was going to be a Fodor's-like guide for car camping is the funniest thing, though.)

Summary: INCREDIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!
Review: This is an exceptional book filled with dry wit and humorous observations on human nature. Kick back, prop up your feet and speed through Mark's desert "abenteures". My only complaint is that is was too short.

Summary: Don't be fooled!!!!
Review: This is not a travel book - even though everyone seems to be marketing it as one. It is a novel. As a novel it is passable but I wouldn't go out my way to read it.

Summary: excellent read
Review: Very compelling read. I found myself engrossed in the sincerity of the characters and their self-effacing yet provocative lifestyle. I look forward to reading his second book!

Summary: Camping at its finest!
Review: Wow! Talk about adventures, or should I say misadventures. I was parched until I read Car Camping. Now, I thirst no more, even though your humor is as dry as the desert. Your stories are as real as they come. This book will take you on a ride to places that will make you wish you were there getting in on the action first hand. Car Camping is a lesson in life - try and get away from it all and you'll find yourself knee deep in the hoopla anyway. Highly entertaining and part history lesson, Car Camping is a fantastic collection of short stories. Kudos to you Mark Sundeen. Keep on camping and keep on writing. I can't wait for your next book.
