From the ice fields of Alaska to the volcanoes of Hawaii, renowned photographer and best-selling author Philippe Bourseiller takes his readers on a riveting journey through 67 of the most magnificent natural sites in North America. After completing his awe-inspiring books on volcanoes, the North and South poles and the Sahara, Bourseiller spent an entire year travelling the length and breadth of the United States, capturing its amazing diversity and ecological richness. "America's Parks" contains 265 of his breathtaking aerial and terrestrial photos featuring wide, panoramic views of a wild America, from Mt. St. Helen to Niagara Falls, places where nature is omnipresent, where unexpected colours take your breath away and where beauty stands unrivalled. This book contains a passionate argument from journalists rich in their historical, scientific and sociological background, for the need to provide protection for America's remarkable wilderness.
