This review is from: Sunrise to Paradise: The Story of Mount Rainier National Park (Paperback)
Years ago I hiked at Mt. Rainier, took pictures in its flower meadows, and slid in its summer snow. I thought someday I'd climb its glaciers to the summit, 14, 410 feet. That never happened. But this book brings back all the old impressions and delights-and adds to them. Lots of photos (280!). Lot of information, most of it new to me. Richard P.

This book shows the history of Mount Rainier National Park, from Sunset to Paradise. The photos are great and the paragraphs are informative and don't run on. The book also goes into the history of the 14,411 foot Stratovolcano, and how 5,600 years ago, the peak was at 16,500 feet, but a major eruption caused a massive collapse and created the peak we know, love and cherish today.

This review is from: Sunrise to Paradise: The Story of Mount Rainier National Park (Paperback)
A wonderful, modern, discussion of The Mountain. Enough natural history to keep scientific interest with Native American and European development history. A must have book for the Puget Sound Region Naturalist.
