National Parks of Britain

There are 15 national parks in Britain (ten in England, three in Wales, and two in Scotland). In National Parks of Britain, each park gets an overview, explaining its history, showing top sites/points of interest, and providing a somewhat detailed map to help visitors navigate the area. 

As in the States, Britain's national parks can be large; the below map gives you an idea. A park can encompass many towns, geographical features, historical sites, and so on. This book is a nice guide to each.

As with the previous review, this book is great for those living in or traveling through Britain. Each park gets a cursory treatment, enough to get you going—but not enough to fully explore each area. So supplemental resources may be required, but this is a fine starting point.
