Reviews
YAAIn this beautiful book, National Geographic steps away from its traditional role of satiating the vagabond needs of armchair world explorers. On Assignment focuses its cameras only on the United States, and provides a new adventure with every turn of the page. From Alaska to Florida, the stunning photographs provide a portrait in time of a USA undergoing tremendous change. The publisher uses the talents of its incredible staff to celebrate the broad diversity that makes America so great. From Hurricane Andrew to weekly baseball games, this masterpiece of photojournalism chronicles the sorrows and joys of living in this country. Opening its pages will allow readers to explore the Okefenokee Swamp, dance with "Comanche John," climb Mount Hayes, or take hundreds of other adventures. The accompanying essays will provide young adults not only with a source of entertainment, but also a very rich educational experience.AJohn Kiefman, Fairfax County Public Library, VA
