Death Valley National Park

Death Valley National Park's 3.3 million acres of desert landscape are celebrated in this volume of color images by photo-essayists Fred and Randi Hirschmann, who explore all corners of the park and its varied, rugged wildlands. Their work brings insight into the natural processes of the arid desert - and the rare but relentless force of water that shapes the stupendous desert scenery. From deep shadowed canyons to shifting sand dunes, from salt pans on the valley floor to ancient pines in the mountain fastness, these 106 color images offer glimpses of Death Valley's many treasures.
