That looks like a well worn copy of Rambles and Scrambles! Worth whatever you paid for it. I've got one of his books for Zion, not so well known, perhaps self published. But a lot of what he scrambles is out of my league now.
If you head down to southern AZ and are looking for ideas, let me know, I am a regular down there. Though these days mostly in the Santa Ritas and a bit in the Catalinas. I used to enjoy Organ Pipe but it got a bit hairy with a lot of migrant traffic and I felt uncomfortable solo in the back country. One night in the campground there was a chopper with search light flying around at midnight. Maybe it is better now, I dunno.
Tucson is pretty nice for a city, and the Sonoran desert is so green and full of life compared to the Mojave.
