Description

About the author:  Danny Nielsen spent his childhood exploring the woods of Alabama before moving to Utah in high school. Culture shock quickly wore off as he developed a love, perhaps an addiction, for sweeping desert vistas and mountain skylines. He has spent the last decade traveling the American West for research and pleasure, studying and writing about its flora and fauna, including the human characters that make their home there. Danny lives in Reno and is a PhD student at the University of Nevada, Reno. Straight Flossin’ and Other Stories of the American West is his first book.
