This is a great value gift package that is full colour throughout with four gatefolds. The Adirondacks are a natural treasure of the USA with millions of visitors each year. This book is in the same format as the bestselling "Wind Blown Clouds" and "Cherry Blossoms". Bigger than the Grand Canyon, Glacier, Yellowstone and Yosemite combined, "The Adirondack Park" contains a stunning array of mountains, wild land, forests, rivers and lakes, waterfalls and deep gorges, as well as many small towns. Photographer Carl Heilman captures the untouched essence of the Adirondacks in this book - from its highest peaks to its foothills. Each chapter contains at least one major tourist 'destination' and major Adirondack village.
