Known and revered equally for its wild beauty and socially conservative Mormon culture, Utah is a western state like no other. Though marked by great violence at its founding, Utah has a less freewheeling and lawless frontier history, due To The firm control of the Mormon dominated culture and government. Most of the state's wildness is to be found in its awe-inspiring landscapes. The state includes some of the nation's most dramatic national parks, including Monument Valley, Arches, Bryce Canyon, and Zion. It's also rich in personality and talent, having produced the likes of the Osmond family, Robert Redford, Roseanne Barr, and NFL star Steve Young. This book reveals Utah's many mysteries and riches.

**A New York Times Bestseller!** Based on the wildly popular Instagram account, Subpar Parks features both the greatest hits and brand-new content, all celebrating the incredible beauty and variety of America’s national parks juxtaposed with the clueless and hilarious one-star reviews posted by visitors. Subpar Parks, both on the popular Instagram page and in this humorous, informative, and collectible book, combines two things that seem like they might not work together yet somehow harmonize perfectly: beautiful illustrations and informative, amusing text celebrating each national park paired with the one-star reviews disappointed tourists have left online. Millions of visitors each year enjoy Glacier National Park, but for one visitor, it was simply "Too cold for me!" Another saw the mind-boggling vistas of Bryce Canyon as "Too spiky!" Never mind the person who visited the thermal pools at Yellowstone National Park and left thinking, “Save yourself some money, boil some water at home.” Featuring more than 50 percent new material, the book will include more depth and insight into the most popular parks, such as Yosemite, Yellowstone, the Grand Canyon, and Acadia National Parks; anecdotes and tips from rangers; and much more about author Amber Share's personal love and connection to the outdoors. Equal parts humor and love for the national parks and the great outdoors, it's the perfect gift for anyone who loves to spend time outside as well as have a good read (and laugh) once they come indoors.
