About The North Cascades Highway: A Roadside Guide
Product description Title: The North Cascades Highway( A Roadside Guide to America's Alps) Binding: Paperback Author: JackMcLeod Publisher: UniversityofWashingtonPress Review "A book described by the author as 'ideal for someone with ADD,' the North Cascades Highway offers information on a new subject on every page, making it the perfect introduction to the area for amateur geologists, historians, and naturalists."―Anna Roth, Washington Trails Association, December 2013 "His ruminations are brief but wide-ranging enough to spur curiosity and tempt the reader to do more exploration, whether in books or on foot. The North Cascades Highway should awaken a new perspective and remind uswhat a privilege it is to have such ready access to such rugged mountain."―Marcy Stamper, Methow Valley News, August 29 2013 "A beautifully photographed guide to the history, geology and notable spots along the spectacular highway through the North Cascades."― Seattle Times, September 17, 2013 "There is so much to see and learn along the North Cascades Highway. But as you drive along at 60 mpg, just what do you look for and where do you look for it? Author Jack McLeod can tell you . . . For McLeod, the guidebook is a compilation of his passions. Passions he hopes to stir in others."―Vince Richardson, Skagit Valley Herald "If there's any truth to the idea that ownership in fact derives from knowledge and appreciation of a placethen Jack McLeod's eloquent and stunning guide, The North Cascades Highway gives him ownership."―Phillip Fenner, The Wild Cascades "The answer for anyone who has driven through a spectacular mountain range and wondered, 'Which one is this?' More than just a thoroughly detailed tour with breathtaking photography, this work is essential geohistorical study for this range and is recommended for Washingtonians, Cascade hikers and enthusiasts, and academics."― Library Journal " The North Cascades Highway has outstanding photos and informative text that effectively deals with technical material in a nontechnical way."―Ruth Kirk, author of Archaeology in Washington About the Author Jack McLeod teaches physical, earth, environmental, and space sciences at Cascade High School in Everett, Washington, and has served as Science Coordinator for the Everett School District.
