Something unusual keeps this book from being just another partial glance at the National Parks. For one thing, it describes and illustrates, in color, each National Park Service unit in the Southwest open for public use. For another, every area description has been written by a National Park Service employee or, in many cases, the author, who grew up in the Service and served in, or worked for it, during most of 50 years. Last but not least, each article was first submitted in draft form to the official in charge for the area for criticism and correction, before going into print. With each reprint all information is similarly updated. This makes the book, its area maps and "How to Get There" portion as accurate as humanly possible.
