Dear Friend of the National Parks,
Photographer Ian Shive has
walked the trails of Yosemite Valley, wandered the
railyards of Steamtown National Historic Site, snorkeled the
waters of the Everglades, and climbed the peaks of Denali to
capture images for National Parks magazine and other
publications like National Geographic,
Outside, and Time. Now he's coming
to Miami to talk about those experiences and sign copies of
his new book, The National Parks: Our American
Landscape.
The book features contributions
from NPCA President Tom Kiernan and the editors of
National Parks magazine, and a percentage of the
proceeds will go toward NPCA's crucial work, which we
couldn't do without you. The iconic landscapes are all
here: Arches and the Grand Canyon, Glacier and Zion, Yellowstone
and Yosemite. So, too, are the sights that many of us overlook:
the pure white gypsum of White Sands, a jellyfish floating in
the Channel Islands, a tarantula and a scorpion underfoot in Big
Bend. It's a great gift for any park lover you know, and it's
not a bad way to pick your next vacation spot,
either.
Please join us for one of the two upcoming

Landscape in your
