Canyons & Mesas by Jerome Doolittle
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Canyons and Mesas is another book from my shelf of Time-Life American Wilderness Series.
I enjoyed the text with phrases such as "...full of heat that sucks the water out of the blood, rocks that turn under the feet, snakes to bite, thorns to tear, flash floods to drown a man, and blizzards to freeze him."
I recommend it to all readers.

The Southern Appalachians by Jerome Doolittle
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This has been in my home library since we had a subscription to the Time-Life American Wilderness Series. I enjoyed the photos many times when I knew we would be driving through the area. This is the first time I consistently read all five chapters, and I enjoyed the text as much as I enjoyed the pictures for Doolittle evoked memories of hikes I previously made and spurred my imagination to want some new hikes.
I recommend this to all readers who enjoy armchair-travels and natural history.
