Preserve Your Family Pictures: How To Save Photo Heirlooms for Future Generations by Amber Richar
The way we go about saving our photos from the 1900's was to scan them in and put them on a hard drive at which point each of the kids, living in different US locations, got a copy along with their own hard drive.
It's my job to update our daily/weekly photos and place them on the hd and notify the kids to send theres along once a year so we all have updated photos.
Like the subjects this book covers, preserving what you have. I'm not too concerned with that as I store them on hd's and can print them at anytime I want.
Discusses methods for photo preservation. Lots of different discussions in how to store them and why one method is better than another.
The thing that took the longest time for me to do was organizing them by year.
Has sections on digital also on how to fix photos even and suggests a local photoshop class.  Discusses slides and other forms of photos.

Canyon solitude: a woman's solo river journey through Grand Canyon by Patricia McCairen
A woman's journey in a boat down the grand canyon waters. Scary parts but also fun parts.
What I really liked about this journey is that she describes all the flowers and animals and trees and she makes you feel like you are there.
Very colorful!  She was under no deadline as others books I've read along similar themes.
