"Some excellent books have been pouring in from this press of late, and this no exception."—Book Talk

"…it’s so easy to use that even first-time vistitors to petroglyph sites would find it invaluable."—New Mexico Magazine

In this guide, Jerome and Susan Malitz take the reader through the history, people, fauna, and geology of Acadia. See the magnificent maple trees, the carnivorous purple pitcher plants, bayberry shrubs, and other vegetation that beautify Maine’s small national park. Hear the calls of the peregrine falcon or the hustle of a busy beaver. Yet most importantly, enjoy the thrill of the 14 main hikes and numerous spur trails described in this guide. The park contains over 120 miles of trails, from short and easy to long and strenuous, so there is a hike perfect for all skill levels. This easy-to-use guide covers many of them, and also includes over 150 photos of the area, as well as a description of the 45 miles of carriage roads for bicyclists, walkers, and horseback riders.

Most of the spectacular and often otherworldly scenery in this park, including many species of flora and fauna, is readily accessible. This guide offers an abundance of information to help travelers plan their desert adventures. The book includes more than 90 color photographs of the park’s stunning terrain, which both entices and informs.
