Summary: Excellent Photography and very informative.
Review: All of the books written by Robert Thayer convey the true beauty of Acadia National Park. Robert is an outstanding photographer/ author and is an inspiration for my own work. I have seen many slides of Roberts work and I am always impressed. I give this book my highest recommendation for any person interested in learning about Acadia, nature, wildlife, and especially photography. He also has 3 other books available on Amazon.com of an equal caliber.

Summary: A Guide to Acadia National Park's Scenic Byway
Review: From the steep granite headlands with their powerful displays of thunderous surf, to the rounded mountaintops rising above fragrant balsam forests, Mount Desert Island and Acadia National Park offer a remarkable diversity of natural and human history. Acadia's twenty-one-mile Park Loop Road was designed in the 1930s by noted landscape architect Frederick Law Olmstead Jr. to "lead one through a series of visual experiences." This book guides the visitor through the unparalleled scenic beauty, dramatic geology, and historic importance of the Loop Road.Author Robert Thayer, a naturalist for the National Park Service since 1982, combines his photographic talents with his knowledge of the natural and cultural history of the area in a unique guide that makes a wonderful souvenir.

Summary: The photography alone makes this a worthwhile purchase.
Review: I was fortunate enough to review this publication ahead of print. Even if one has never experienced the beauty of Acadia National Park, the photography alone makes this publication a worthwhile purchase. Those who have visited Acadia will again experience its beauty through these photos. Breathtaking high-quality photographs on excellent print stock.
