Kurzbeschreibung
"This book will be in great demand by travelers, park visitors, and aficionados of Texas landscapes." -- James Wright Steely, Director of National Register Programs, Texas Historical Commission
Whether you enjoy looking at scenic landscapes, touring historical sites, camping, fishing, hiking, backpacking, swimming, boating, horseback riding, rock climbing, or almost any other outdoor recreation, there's a state park in Texas where you can pursue your pleasure. From the Panhandle to the Rio Grande Valley, the Pineywoods to the Big Bend, some 125 state parks offer you a natural escape from fast-lane living.
This book is the only official and complete guide to the state parks of Texas. Loaded with accurate, up-to-date information from the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, it describes the attractions of each park and gives details-- including a locator map-- about camping and lodging facilities, types of recreation offered, and addresses and phone numbers for more information.
To assist you in planning trips, the parks are grouped into seven geographic regions-- Big Bend Country, Gulf Coast, Hill Country, Panhandle Plains, Pineywoods, Prairies and Lakes, and the South Texas Plains. With gorgeous color photographs and an inviting text, Laurence Parent depicts the natural features and attractions of each region.
So if you want to watch the sunset over Enchanted Rock, fish in the surf on the beach at Galveston, or listen for a ghostly bugle among the ruins of Fort Lancaster, let this book be your complete guide. Don't take a trip in Texas without it.

Laurence Parent's "Official Guide to Texas State
Parks" is a practical and beautiful presentation
of the rich variety of public-accessible
lands of Texas. Divided into seven areas, it
gives succinct but helpful descriptions of parks
in "Big Bend Country", "Gulf Coast",
"Hill Country", "Panhandle Plains",
"Piney Woods", "Prairies and Lakes",
and "South Texas Plains". There are beautiful
color photographs of most of the parks
and just enough history and information to
whet your appetite to see it, (but not
enough to make you feel you've seen it,
so why bother?) I am ordering copies for my
Texas grandchildren to present, along with
a Texas roadmap and a promise of both
daytrips (from the Houston area) and
camping trips in the near future. This is
a great reference book as well as
just entertaining reading.

Good Look at Texas State Parks
1. Dezember 2001
Format:Taschenbuch
More a coffeetable book showcasing the diversity and beauty of Texas State Parks than a detailed guide to the same, the Official Guide... nevertheless makes a good addition to one's Texas travel library. Coupled with Parent's Hikers Guide to Texas and various online resources, outdoors enthusiasts' only problem will be in deciding which parks to visit first! :)
Includes addresses and contact information to the state parks for additional information.
This is THE book on Texas Parks
11. November 2008
Format:Taschenbuch
I do not intend to write a lot about this book. I have camped/hiked in most of Texas' great parks. This is THE book to tell you enough about each to pique your curiosity in (or deter you from going to)any and all Texas State Parks.
I have given this book to all of my friends who like to camp, hike, drive to and enjoy the outdoors.
