The Complete Guide to the National Park Lodges, 5th Review

The Complete Guide to the National Park Lodges, 5th
Average Reviews:

This book is a must for those of us who love the national parks. My husband and I have stayed in several national park lodges over the years and this guide is right on. It describes each lodge and recommends which rooms to request. Several years ago we visited Yellowstone National Park for the first time and didn't have the faintest idea that there were many lodges to choose from. We stayed in Old Faithful Inn only because that was the only lodge we knew about. The authors have done a great service by making their experiences available to the rest of us. We highly recommend this book to you.

Great pictures, informative text, and a tempting vacation guide (the book comes with a pocket guide showing prices, phone numbers, directions, photography tips, and other information). Describes the architectural and cultural evolution of the greatest lodges in Canada - most are those lodges built by the railways or by early 20th century mountaineers. All your guests will pick it up.

All aboard for a trip to the magnificent castles and cabins of the Canadian Rockies! Christine Barnes, author of the award-winning Great Lodges of the West, brings to life one of the boldest political and engineering feats in North American history in Great Lodges of the Canadian Rockies. This extraordinary illustrated history describes how the Canadian government and the Canadian Pacific Railway Company created a travel adventure unequaled to this day, featuring architectural landmarks set in North America's most spectacular mountain scenery. Stunning color photographs by Fred Pflughoft and David Morris, blended with Barnes' extensive research, architectural drawings and historical pictures (some never before published), create a vivid, historically accurate journey from the past to the present.
