The Valley 101: Great, Big Book of Life

A collection of oddly informative columns by The Arizona Republic's Clay Thompson. The first book, Valley 101: A Slightly Skewed Guide to Living in Arizona, was all things Arizona. This time around, we've brought together the best of the best, much of which has absolutely nothing to do with the Grand Canyon state except for the origin of the question (and sometime not even that). Chapters include Plants/Animals/Bugs, Arizona, Human Body, Weather/Science, and Miscellaneous. If you are a fan of Clay, you have to get ahold of this book. It'll make you laugh!
