Moving from the cascading waters of Niagara Falls to the massive volcanoes of Hawaii, renowned nature photographer Philippe Bourseiller takes readers on a captivating visual journey through 67 of the most magnificent natural sites in North America. The product of an entire year spent coursing the length and breadth of the United States, America’s Parks captures the amazing diversity and ecological richness of some of our most important natural wildlife areas. Bourseiller’s free-ranging camera captures more than 200 breathtaking aerial and terrestrial images of wild America, from Mount St. Helens to the ice fields of Alaska, while essays from three prominent environmental journalists place the sites in historical, scientific, and sociological context. The result is a sumptuous panorama of unrivalled beauty that argues eloquently for environmental protection.

The desert is brought close in vivid color photos, printed full page or in double-page spreads, and some on fold-out pages--for armchair travelers with either a good table for reading or strong arms and exceptional dexterity (the book weighs 9.6 pounds and measures 11.5x15"). Photographer Bourseiller spent four years criss-crossing the vast desert that spans 10 countries in northern Africa; 200 photos are presented in an extravagant large-scale format that befits the subject matter and the remarkable quality of his images. Several contributed essays explore the region's history, culture, people, and future; and the photos are fully captioned in a separate section at the end of the book. The Abrams edition is a translation of the French work published in 2004, by Editions de La Martinière. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
