LASSOING THE SUN A Year in America's National Parks

Woods offers a very personal story of life, death, children, parents, and 12 journeys (one every month) to America's national parks. He's careful to recognize the broad range of national park experiences--from RV road trips to Hawaiian backpacking. Narrator Corey Snow has a deep, rich voice. His delivery is unhurried, which suits Woods's introspective narrative, and he's always easy to understand. Aside from a few jarring pronunciation errors, he offers a solid performance. Woods offers his take on experiences that many of us have shared and others that few have considered, all of which exist because of the National Park System. It's a happy meditation for the National Park Service 2016 Centennial. F.C. © AudioFile 2016, Portland, Maine [Published: DECEMBER 2016]
