Nice coffee table book. Nice photos of US National Parks. Breaks them down by geographical features. Includes a general map of each park, a brief description and history.

I was disappointed by this book. Though it is a strictly coffee table book and the pictures are beautiful I was disappointed in the photos of certain parks as they really didn't show the beauty or importance of those parks. Especially grand portages picture.
