| "This was honestly the book I was most skeptical of. I figured it was one of those �trap-the-tourists� books and expected something cheesy and just �eh�. I was completely wrong. Like the two books above, it is packed full of informative graphics, tips for travel (like staying away from bison � they ARE wild animals), historic photos and snippets and educational comparisons (grizzly vs. black bear; bison vs. buffalo; wolf vs. coyote, etc.) I think it is a great book to get for kids (again aged 8-12 or so) before you go and then bring it along. And it certainly isn�t just for kids � I learned plenty too."
