### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Outstanding Photos and Well-written and Entertaining Guide of NP Night Skies
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on September 3, 2010*

Being a National Parks enthusiast, biologist, astronomy buff, and teacher, I would have picked up this book anyway.  Now that I've read a majority of the pages, a copy of this book is now a new and permanent edition to my home.What initially hooked me where Dr Nordgren's photos.  Although the book doesn't do justice by some, most are stunning, and capture a unique perspective of the night sky. As I read whatever chapter I desired, I found myself caught up in remarkable aspects of astronomy, native history, legends and quotes, and the author's personal experience all interwoven to highlight the awe of nature, and our links to the Universe through the eyes of the human spirit.At one point, naively, I opened the book to Chapter Two: Black Hole Sun.  Black holes are cool, I think, and I'm ready for a lesson like black holes, white dwarfs, neutron stars, etc.  I read about Moon and Sun eclipses, a special one over Grand Teton, Moon migration, its alignment with the Sun and the Earth, personal experience of the author in the National Park with his hand-made sextant at scenic spots a, how a location is related to Kepler and his understanding of the orbits, the advance of worldly  astro-scientific  knowledge  despite religious resistances, and once again back to the authors personal experience whereby his contemplation of the universe is disrupted by the end of  a solar eclipse. Somewhere I read a comment by a person saying, "I'll read this book tonight".  My effort to describe a chapter is but a meager attempt to describe the density and richness found in chapters, what experiences and basic  insights are within reach, if not already, of the everyday person, and how interdisciplinary each chapter is.  Not to mention the excellent photos, diagrams, and supplemental material that is within each chapter if not throughout the book.Not to be read overnight, I think, but chapters are to be savored.  This reader appreciates the dialogue, the transitions and the care in a well-knit presentation of the universe represented in the National Park Night Skies.

    I love this book!
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on December 15, 2019*

It arrived in plenty of time, in great shape, and it was exactly as described.  Plus -- I LOVE the pictures and the linking of astronomy (what you can see) to places like the national parks of the US.  I've visited a lot of them, and never thought to view the skies in the evening.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Most impressive!
  

*by B***M on Reviewed in the United States on October 25, 2012*

I've just finished this book.Dr. Nordgren did an excellent job.He not only connects the earthly landscape to heavenly bodies seamlessly, but also narrates mythology, archaeology and light pollution in a very interesting way.And most of all, all of the astronomical information is precise and up to date.It was very touching to read such a book since I love both astronomy and geology.I live in South Korea where there's no real dark sky.I envy you Americans for having such beautiful National Parks.On top of that, I got to know there are people to enthusiastically protect their own treasure.I am already planning to visit some of National Parks in Utah next spring.I'll pack my camping gears and binoculars to really appreciate the beauty of the night sky in the heart of most exceptional places.
