Yellowstone is our first national park and combined with Grand Teton National Park, the region is unrivaled in geologic wonder, dramatic landscapes, and unique wildlife. Benchmark Maps partnered with the University of Oregon's Department of Geography's InfoGraphics Lab to develop a new recreation atlas that complements their successful academic title Atlas of Yellowstone. The result was this specialty recreation atlas and guide for Greater Yellowstone and Grand Teton. We hope you enjoy the features of this atlas of these national parks, the cornerstones of western park lands.

In an era of accelerating population growth, mass urbanization, and increasing pressure on the natural environment, the megacities of China's eastern seaboard have become a focal point of architectural and urban-design attention. The "reform and opening-up era" has touched China's major cities in different ways, affecting the existing fabric of dynastic capitals, trade hubs, and former European colonies and concessions; this in turn has provided the setting for a range of complex reactions by contemporary architects. The Architectural Guide China provides an invaluable window into this work, with city-by-city coverage including historic maps and background information on urban form. Building on the authors' years of experience leading architectural study tours, this book is the first comprehensive English-language survey of recent Chinese architecture to be organized as a travel guide.
