Jack Rubys Kitchen Sink
You'd want the country's sharpest observer to lead you through a land as quirky and enigmatic as the American Southwest, and that's just what you get when '60s survivor Tom Miller trains his keen eye and acid wit on the region. Miller's Southwest is a vortex of cockfights and cantinas, of black-velvet paintings and uber-tacky bola ties, of eco-millitants, border-crossers, and eccentric characters whose outlook is as spare and elemental as the desert that surrounds them. As Miller wanders from a Texas auction where he nearly buys Jack Ruby's kitchen sink to the Arizona desert where a saguaro cactus kills its own assassin, it becomes clear that no other guide to the Southwest manifests such a clear moral vision while reveling in the joy of the land.
