In Essence of Tucson: The Story--a Finalist in the 2024 International Book Awards in the Travel Category--Aneta embarks on a transformative hero's journey, immersing herself in the heart of this captivating town. Through interviews with remarkable residents--like Peter Ronstadt, Diana Madaras, Jim Griffith, and Domingo DeGrazia--she explores everything from art, music, gastronomy, and history to the rich cultures of the Hispanics, Yaqui, and Tohono O'odham. What makes Tucson so captivating? What timeless stories does its desert, history, and people hold? Join Aneta on a transformative journey of personal discovery and cultural exploration that celebrates the spirit of the Southwest. >★★★★★ "With gentle curiosity, this young Czech visitor has opened the hearts of some of Tucson's most admired, diverse, and cherished personalities to generously pour out their stories. Their words--and hers--express Tucson's off-the-wall combo of diversity, like a verbal Tucson Meet Yourself celebration!" - Martha A. Burgess ★★★★★ "Essence of Tucson captured my attention from the very beginning. Even after living in this region for more than 30 years, I found myself wanting to revisit old forgotten places and explore new local destinations. I was yearning to be a better citizen. Equally surprising was the author's story and her journey through this sacred land. Powerful and mesmerizing. Every resident and student of Tucson should add this book to their library!" - Paul C. Bellows
