The author of Grand Canyon Country now roams the vast region that comprises both the Grand Teton and Yellowstone National Parks--an exquisite land filled with forests, thundering waterfalls, hot springs, and geysers. Featuring detailed maps and more than 100 full-color photos, it's a great book for trip-planning, gift-giving, and armchair travel.

Since visiting Yellowstone, I'm on a quest to learn as much as possible about the region. This latest book, published as a National Geographic Society Special publication, is stunningly beautiful. The writing is as crisp as the winter nights described. The photos that accompany the text are breathtakingly beautiful.

I highly recommend this to anyone who will be traveling to Yellowstone.

Yellowstone Country: The Enduring Wonder by Seymour Fishbein (National Geographic Society 1989)(917.8752). This is a National Geographic Society Publication, so the reader knows that it’s going to be a visual and sensual treat. This contains stunning photos of the wonders of the West along with amazing, informative, and very well-written text. My rating: 7/10, finished 2004.

Going to Yellowstone this summer and doing research now. This National Geographic publication has gorgeous photos. A must read if you want to truly appreciate this wondrous place.

Typical coffee-table mini-book. I've read tons of them.

A narrative view of some of the better known wonders of Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks. Some of the information is dated, for example at the time the book was written the wolf had not been reintroduced to Yellowstone, however the author's affection and respect for the parks along with the timeless images captured by the photographer make this a worthwhile read.
