Abstract
Pertains to a comprehensive guide and story written by M.B. Williams about Jasper National Park. Using story, the author tells of Jasper’s history using her own experiences. She guides the reader to explore new destinations within the mountain park. Some of, but not all of the topics discussed pertain to the following, climate, seasons, fishing, backpacking trips and more. The guide is comprehensive and offers specific details that would likely to have been very relevant for new travelers in the area.
