Adventures With the Mojave Phone Booth, A Book About an Isolated Phone Booth’s Rise to Fame
Adventures with the Mojave Phone Booth is an upcoming book by Godfrey “Doc” Daniels that tells the tale of the Mojave phone booth, a phone booth in an isolated stretch of California desert that became Internet-famous in the late 1990s. Daniels propelled the phone booth to fame with the creation of the original Mojave phone booth website back in 1997. Soon fans from around the world were calling the phone booth or traveling to the Mojave National Preserve in California to visit the booth in person (and answer calls). Unfortunately for its fans, the phone booth was removed in May 2000. Daniels is raising funds for the book on Kickstarter. The book is due out in 2015. We first posted about the Mojave phone booth back in 2007.
