Muir Woods: a cool, silent northern California redwood wilderness so tranquil that one could forget it's only a dozen miles from San Francisco. Like any good guidebook, Susan and Phil Frank's Insider's Guides enhance the pleasure of a trip to one of our national parks. But they go far beyond the other guides in several unique ways. Narrated by a friendly and extremely knowledgeable cartoon guide, each Insider's Guide offers a lively, funny tour of a splendid place. Readers will learn when to visit, what to bring, what to see, and how to see it. They'll arrive properly equipped for a safe and enjoyable visit. They'll come away knowing plenty about the park's geological and human history, flora, fauna, and future prospects. The question-and-answer format yields information without a lot of searching. A quick-reference section offers, among other things, a telephone directory, guide to area resources, backpacker's checklist, lists of outfitters and transportation companies, and an overview of regional conservation and educational programs. Susan Frank's text has been reviewed by park personnel and regional experts to ensure timeliness and accuracy. Illustrations by San Francisco Chronicle cartoonist Phil Frank add a warmth that other guidebooks do not achieve. This series adds immeasurably to visitors' understanding and enjoyment of our national parks -- and offers a lot of fun while they're planning their trip!
