Weber. Featured subjects include Yosemite, Yellowstone, the Everglades and many other historic National Park Service locations. COMPLETE WITH THE PUBLISHER-ISSUED FOLDING MAP: The original large 10-color map, National Parks, Monuments and Shrines of the United States and Canada, remains present in the rear-cover pocket. The book's publisher's text specifically identifies this map as being tucked into the back-cover pocket. Its survival is an important point of completeness, since these removable maps are frequently missing from otherwise intact copies. ALSO INCLUDED: A related National Geographic folding map titled Vacationlands of the United States and Southern Canada, copyright 1966. This second map was added by a previous owner at a later date and was not originally issued with the 1959 book. It is included as complementary vintage National Geographic cartographic ephemera.
