A picture-packed guide to every US National Park, from the geyser-rich Yellowstone to the watery Everglades.

Find out about the history of all 63 US National Parks, and discover their countless treasures

Eyewitness National Parks is a spectacular illustrated guide to America’s very popular National Parks, which span nearly 85 million acres or about 3.6 percent of the country’s land. This book for 9–12 year old explorers helps you visit each one – from the icy windswept ranges of Wrangell-St Elias in Alaska to the sandy plains of Death Valley, the coral reefs of American Samoa, and the vast mangroves of the Everglades. Marvel at landmarks such as the Colorado River winding down the Grand Canyon or the Old Faithful spraying steam in Yellowstone, and much more – every park is incredible and unique, with its own history, natural wonders, animals, plants, and places. 

Part of DK’s best-selling Eyewitness series, this title is meant for the next generation of information-seekers and stay-at-home explorers, with a fresh look, striking photographs, latest information, and a new “eyewitness” feature – fascinating first-hand accounts from experts in the field.
