On January 1 of 2016, Stefanie Payne, a creative professional working at NASA Headquarters, and Jonathan Irish, a photographer with National Geographic, left their lives in Washington, D.C. and hit the open road on an expedition to explore and document all 59 of America's national parks during the centennial celebration of the U.S. National Park Service - 59 parks in 52 weeks - the Greatest American Road Trip. Captured in more than 300,000 digital photographs, written stories, and videos shared by the national and international media, their project resulted in an incredible view of America's National Park System seen in its 100th year. 'A Year in the National Parks, The Greatest American Road Trip' is a gorgeous visual journey through our cherished public lands, detailing a rich tapestry of what makes each park special, as seen along an epic journey to visit them all within one special celebratory year.

'This book will be appreciated by visitors who want more historical background than ordinary series guidebooks supply...Highly recommended...' LIBRARY JOURNAL 'For independent, inquisitive travellers traversing the green roads of Ireland, there is no better guide than A TRAVELLER'S HISTORY OF IRELAND.' SMALL PRESS Constantly in the news, there are few countries where the background history is so vital to an understanding of its people and culture. A TRAVELLER'S HISTORY OF IRELAND not only offers the reader a chronological outline of the nation's development right up to the present day but also provides an invaluable introduction to this land of poets, saints, eloquent politicians, illustrious soldiers and inspiring rebels. Political, social and industrial history and economics are also well covered. The book includes a comprehensive description of modern Ireland, both North and South, and of its two separate Catholic Nationalist and Protestant Unionist traditions. There is a Historical Gazetteer cross referenced to the main text and particular attention is paid to the classic historical sites, which feature on any visitor's itinerary.
