Synopsis
The USA’s National Parks truly are places of wonder: staggering landscapes of jaw-dropping dimensions and incredible diversity where you can stand on the very edge of civilization.
They are the earth’s breathing spaces, precious places to conserve nature and wildlife for future generations. Explore countless places to hike, camp, climb, swim, and paddle, where you and your family can create lifelong memories of freedom and wide-open spaces.
The book contains inspiring narratives reflecting the rich diversity and natural importance of the parks, including their role in conserving wildlife, their intricate ecosystems, and their importance as untamed yet accessible spaces where people love to escape and unwind.

-Beautiful photography and inspiring ideas – perfect for planning your next adventure
-63 national parks in order of designation, showcasing what makes each one special
-Maps, facts and figures, things to do, and when and where to experience it at its best
The book considers the history of the national parks – the ideas behind their establishment, why they hold a special place in American culture, and why they’re more relevant than ever today. Celebrate the beauty, history, and cultural importance of America’s 63 national parks in this revised and updated edition, which features the newest national park, New River Gorge.
