Frommer’s® Utah, 9th Edition
About the Author
A Denver-based writer, Eric Peterson has authored numerous Frommer’s guides covering the American West, including Frommer’s Montana & Wyoming and Frommer’s Colorado, as well as Ramble: A Field Guide to the U.S.A. and other Ramble titles for Fulcrum Publishing (www.fulcrum-books.com). Peterson’s byline has also appeared in numerous newspapers and magazines, including the New York Daily News, Denver Post, and Delta Sky, and on winter-sports columns for Frommers.com. In his free time, he’s an avid camper, skier, and hiker; a lifelong Broncos fan; and a part-time rock star (at least in the eyes of his niece Olivia and nephews Mitch and Sam).
