Customer Reviews

Good, if somewhat stodgy

The National Geographic guides suffer from a desire to be all things to all travelers. As such, they provide an appropriate introduction to the areas they cover. There are, however, better guides with better photography available; better books of history of the natural wonders of our country. This volume is no exception. It makes a good coffee table book and, if you're only barely thinking about traveling to the canyon, may very well whet your appetite.
