Customer Reviews:
GREAT for the parks it covers, but doesn't cover enough August 10, 2006 6 out of 7 found this review helpful
I found the information in this book much more useful than any other travel guide I have purchased. The lodging information for Yellowstone, for example, describes the state of specific room types at each location!
This book's one failing is its skimpy selection of parks.
Excellent April 28, 2006 6 out of 9 found this review helpful
I really like this book. While it is supposedly geared for kids, I think it's very useful for finding interesting things to do at National Parks for everybody. I don't know why I didn't know this - but when I looked at the table of contents I realized just how few National Parks there are in the East. One side effect of reading this book is that it's made me realize what a precious resource these National Parks are to all of us, and it makes me wonder why there aren't more of them.
