Reviews

[Joyce · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is a beautiful book and certainly one to drool over. The pictures of the historic lodges, the settings and the lodge's specialty meals are awesome. Furthermore, just flipping through the pages is enough to wet your appetite.

The recipes are doable and the layout is good.

If your planning a trip to one of the national parks, this book is ideal for a preview of what you can expect. The lodges and parks are a national treasure that just have to be checked out. So even if you don't actually have dinner there, you can at least re-create the meals.

A well conceived and beautiful book.
