Abstract
This magnificent volume captures the grandeur and diversity of America through truly "spectacular" panoramic color photography by nine of the nation's finest landscape photographers. Measuring an impressive 16" by 12", this book is a virtual tour of the land, from the virgin timberlands of Alaska to the mangrove swamps of the Florida Everglades, and from the bucolic hills of New England to the mountain bluffs of California's Big Sur. Six foldouts, each opening to nearly four feet long, deliver the immense scope of America's vistas. Trek through the most outstanding national parks: Arcadia, Yellowstone, the Grand Canyon, Bryce, Zion, Glacier, Redwood, Denali, and others; see America's beautiful coastlines, mountains, and deserts; visit America's unmatched great cities; see the byways and villages that make the country unique at every turn. A single chapter follows three "paths," each more than 2,000 in length, that explore the American spirit: the Appalachian Trail; the Oregon Trail; and the Mississippi River. Lively, informative text accompanies the photography throughout. A real treasure for lovers of photography, nature, travel, and last but not least, America!
