Title: Exploring Glacier National Park by David Rockwell ISBN: 0-7627-2354-8 Publisher: Globe Pequot Pr Pub. Date: 01 May, 2002 Format: Paperback Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $16.95 |

Summary: Excellent Survey of the Geology, Flora, and Fauna of Glacier
Comment: Obviously this is not a book intended to help you plan a trip to Glacier National Park, so the one-star review below was evidently given simply out of ignorant spite at having bought the wrong book!
If, however, you are looking for a book that discusses the geology, the flora, and the fauna of the stunning wilderness that is Glacier National Park, you can hardly do better than this one. And, if you have a brain that's turned on and are travelling in the park for any considerable length of time, as I did recently, believe me, you will have hundreds of questions about how that mountain got shaped that way or why those flowers only grow in this region or when the big-horned sheep are likely to be visible--and you will be looking for such a book.
This book discusses the different habitats and ecological niches that the park comprises, from the McDonald Creek Valley to the Alpine, includes checklists of native plants and animals, where in the park to find particular species, maps, and beautiful full color photos, and provides enough background on general principles of geology and ecology that you won't need any other resource.
On my visit to the park I saw many people with separate books for animals, for birds, for flowers, and so on. But this book has it all. I highly recommend it.
Rating: 1
Summary: Not a very useful book
Comment: I don't recommend this book, except if you're interested in learning about how the area around the park was formed a long time ago. Otherwise, this book is of no help on a trip to Glacier.
