A feast of marvelous photography. --National Parks Traveler

This beautifully produced deep dive into Yosemite National Park features stunning photography by Robb Hirsch and fascinating natural history from knowledgeable contributors.

Yosemite is like nowhere else on Earth.Within its vast expanses are spectacular granite mountains, glacially carved valleys, thundering waterfalls, delicate meadows, grand trees, and charismatic wildlife. From his years of exploring and studying California's Sierra Nevada, Robb knows that understanding natural processes can thoroughly enhance a visitor's connection to the landscape.

In this book, Robb provides that enriching experience by calling on experts to contribute insights into the natural wonders on view. The images and essays work together to draw readers into a deeper relationship with their favorite national park.

The book features essays by these Sierra Nevada luminaries:

John Muir Laws, on Wonder, Beauty, and Nature

Tim Palmer, on rivers

Greg Stock, on geology

James McGrew, on the role of art in Yosemite

Brock Dolman, on the water cycle

Beth Pratt, on pikas Dan Webster, on wildflowers

Karen Amstutz, on Tuolumne Meadows

Nathan Stephenson, on giant sequoias

Robb's passion is the ongoing search for the Wow! that can be found in every acre of Yosemite National Park--and that passion comes through in each of his photographs. The result is a breathtaking book that will dazzle, enlighten, and inspire a deep appreciation for the nature of Yosemite.
