Historic Redwood National and State Parks is a vibrant collection of essays sharing different parts of Redwood National Park’s history, from the Native Americans and the early explorers to park visitors today. Celebrate the 100 th anniversary of the National Park Service and learn more about the cultural, political, and natural history of Redwood National and State Parks.
A wonderful insight into one of my favorite places in the world. The author traces the natural and cultural history of the region from it's ancient geologic past to the park as we know it today. It brought back a lot of powerful memories from my time there. Docked a star from my review because I think the author could have included additional photos and illustrations, as well as some maps.
