Book Reviews of Great Lodges of the National Parks: Volume Two
Book Review: Definitely a keeper!
Summary: 5 Stars
I have a number of "coffee table" books containing good photography that enticed me to make the purchase and take them home, only to soon find myself placing the books on a shelf in a closet because, beyond the photography, there was not much there to engage my mind. To my delight, this is not the case with Christine Barnes' latest offering. Here I've found a treasure that has earned its place in my living room where I can discover the who, what, when and how of these great lodges. It presents a fascinating and detailed review of the architectural history of these American cultural assets, and is made all the better by the high quality of the accompanying photographs.
