Olympic National Park, fourth edition

"Tim McNulty goes through Olympic National Park one ecosystem at a time, traveling from the mountains to the forests and on to the coast before turning his attention to the impact humans have had on the park's landscape. There's also a quick help section that tells you where to go to see wildflowers, old-growth forests, and wildlife. Too, he tosses in species checklists to help you keep track of what you've seen."—Kurt Repanshek, National Parks Traveler

"A must-have for serious peninsula explorers."—Port Townsend Leader

"McNulty's natural talents as a poet and essayist are put to good use in this all-in-one source. This book, ambitious in both scope and detail, remains the definitive book on the topic . . . ideal for travelers to the park itself as well as for students of history, lovers of nature."—HistoryLink

"One of the best ways to learn about Olympic National Park is to read Tim McNulty's natural history guide. He creates a portrait of the park from coast to rain forest and snow-covered peaks in his usual graceful style, weaving stories of science and history and nature."—Everett Herald

"Pick any page . . . and start reading. Instead of stuffy prose and highly technical terms, you'll find a warm, conversational tone. [This] book packs an encyclopedic range of information about Olympic National Park's natural history."—Sequim Gazette

"It's no wonder this book has been so popular: McNulty is an excellent essayist and his subject is endlessly fascinating."—Washington Park Arboretum Bulletin
