Expert Contributor

Author and freelance writer Joe Cuhaj hails from New Jersey but moved to Alabama 40 years ago. He became one of those Yankees who fell in love with the Southern state’s rich biodiversity and landscapes and never went home. Combining his love of hiking and writing, Joe has penned eight outdoor recreation guides including Hiking Alabama, Paddling Alabama, and his latest, Hiking Waterfalls of Alabama. He has also authored a guide to camping in the state — Best Tent Camping Alabama.

His love of history afforded him the chance to write two historical books about Alabama’s port city of Mobile — Baseball in Mobile and Hidden History of Mobile — for History Press and a collection of fascinating untold stories of the space race titled Space Oddities: Forgotten Stories of Mankind's Exploration of Space. Joe has produced a number of humorous short story podcasts, Joe Cuhaj’s Shorts, that can be heard on his website Joe-Cuhaj.com.
