Here are the details from the store's Website:

"The mountain is eternal, but trails change, and in his new book, Mount Tamalpais Trails, Barry Spitz updates and expands the roster. Spitz, who has spent more than forty years uncovering Mt. Tam’s secrets, shares his encyclopedic knowledge of the mountain’s complex network.

"A revised and expanded edition of his classic guide, this new book includes detailed descriptions of more than 160 trails and fire roads—every inch of which he walked and measured—and completely new maps, as well as full-color photos and an introduction to Tam’s natural and human history.

"Barry Spitz is the author of nine local interest outdoors and history books, including histories of Mill Valley, Marin, and San Anselmo."
