From Assateague to Swallow Falls, from the Susquehanna River Trail
to Rock Creek Park, Maryland offers residents and visitors a wealth
of recreational opportunities in a remarkable variety of natural
settings. Bryan MacKay's Hiking, Cycling, and Canoeing in Maryland
has been the essential guide to outdoor recreation in the state's
parks, preserves, and waterways for more than a decade.
A lifelong resident of Maryland, MacKay combines in this book
his love of outdoor activities and his knowledge of the places,
plants, and animals of the region. For each of the 23 walks, 16
bicycle rides, and 19 canoe trips, he includes general information
on the natural history and ecology of the site and a short essay
that focuses on a topic of special interest -- a particular plant
or animal or an important conservation issue. Along with maps and
detailed directions for each outing, the book also features
beautiful pen-and-ink drawings by Sandy Glover of the Irvine
Natural Science Center.
The second edition provides updated information on the Capital
Crescent Trail, North Point State Park (Black Marsh), Soldiers
Delight Natural Environmental Area, and the Susquehanna River
Trail, as well as current contact information for all parks and
preserves.
