Book Reviews of Pacific Northwest: Land of Light and Water
Book Review: Beautiful But Limited
Summary: 4 Stars
This book is full of beautiful photographs. Some of the images of Mt. Rainier and the Olympic Penninsula are stunning. If this is what you are looking for, this is an excellent choice. However, if you are looking for a book full of images of the entire Northwest, I expect you will be at least a little disappointed. In the introduction, the author talks of her youth spent in places like the oregon coast, the images seems to be greatly biased toward Mt. Rainier National Park and Olympic National Park in Washington. The number of images from other parts of the Northwest (Oregon Coast, the Oregon desert, NW Idaho, Mt. Hood, Mt. Saint Helens, the Colombia River, etc.) are scarce in comparison.
It is a beautiful book - it's just limited in it's scope.
