Présentation de l'éditeur
A lavishly illustrated tour of America's most compellingly beautiful places.
The America the Beautiful series takes readers on a photographic tour of the country's most beautiful states and most vibrant cities. In North Carolina, dazzling images -- from cityscapes to quiet forests, from coastal settings to historic locations -- are by Jim Hargan. Clear and informative captions bring each scene to life. These handsomely designed books show the beauty of each destination, to be enjoyed by visitors and locals alike.
Just like visitors to the state, readers of North Carolina will find beauty at every turn. In the northwest, the majestic Smoky Mountains offer stunning vistas of cascading waterfalls and carpets of fir trees. The coastal region is no less spectacular, with its endless miles of white sandy beaches. And in the central region, towering skyscrapers mark the state's major metropolitan areas.
North Carolina is the fourth fastest-growing state and the sixth most-visited. It offers everything from thriving cities and quaint villages to breathtaking landscapes and beautiful beaches, and it is all captured perfectly in this full-color book.
