Arizona Curiosities - Quirky Characters, Roadside Oddities and Other Offbeat Stuff

Informationen zum Autor Sam Lowe has lived in Arizona since 1969! which puts him into the loosely regulated "near native" category. He worked as a columnist for "The Phoenix Gazette" and" Arizona Republic "for more than 25 years and was named "Humor Columnist of the Year" by the National Society of Newspaper Columnists in 1988. After retiring in 1999! he became a freelance writer. He and his wife Lyn live in a two-bedroom house in Phoenix. There's nothing unusual about them or the house. Well! maybe the billboard-size circus poster plastered across one wall in the garage. Klappentext Although Arizona was one of the last states to enter the union! this Wild West frontier claims some of the quirkiest citizens and sites in the country--everything from stock tank racing to a $200 margarita. This laugh-out-loud guide will introduce readers to the offbeat people! places! and events of Arizona.
