Oro Valley author James Williams has penned a book about Oro Valley's history. It's titled: "Claiming The Desert." The book is available on Amazon.com.
"Claiming The Desert"
details one hundred years of Oro Valley history, from 1865-1965. The cost is $14.95 with all proceeds going to the Oro Valley Historical Society.
We have not read it yet. But we plan to do so.
We wonder: Does it contain a section on Oro Valley's Catherine Reidy, Oro Valley's Rattlesnake Lady. Watch the video about her here.
James tells us that there will be book signings in the area. We will be sure to keep you informed.
Here's the link for you to use if you want to donate to the historical society.
