From the battlefields of the American Revolution to the trails blazed by the pioneers, lands explored by Lewis and Clark and covered by the Pony Express, to the civil-rights marches of Selma and Montgomery, this is the official book of the country's 19 National Historic Trails. These trails range from 54 miles to more than 5,000 and feature historic and interpretive sites to be explored on foot and sometimes by paddle, sail, bicycle, horse, or by car on backcountry roads. Totaling 37,000 miles through 41 states, our entire national experience comes to life on these trails--from Native American history to the settlement of the colonies, westward expansion, and civil rights--and they are beautifully depicted in this large-format volume.

It's wrapped in cellophane and will stay that way until my son opens it on his birthday in April.
I haven't yet seen the book as I purchased it as a gift for my son's birthday which is in April. And I am sure that he will get great pleasure from reading this as he and his family are hikers and my son is an Adirondack 46er.
