She graduated from the University of Nebraska in 2010 with a degree in advertising and a minor in art.

Millions of visitors each year enjoy Glacier National Park, but for one visitor, it was simply \"Too cold for me!\" Another saw the mind-boggling vistas of Bryce Canyon as \"Too spiky!\" Never mind the person who visited the thermal pools at Yellowstone National Park and left thinking, \"Save yourself some money, boil some water at home.\" \n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Featuring more than 50 percent new material, the book will include more depth and insight into the most popular parks, such as Yosemite, Yellowstone, the Grand Canyon, and Acadia National Parks; anecdotes and tips from rangers; and much more about author Amber Share's personal love and connection to the outdoors. Equal parts humor and love for the national parks and the great outdoors, it's the perfect gift for anyone who loves to spend time outside as well as have a good read (and laugh) once they come indoors.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"italic\"\u003eShelf Awareness\u003c\/span\u003e 11\/02\/2021 (EAN 9780593185544, Hardcover)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Share, Amber\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Plume Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePub Date:\u003c\/b\u003e July 13, 2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC:\u003c\/b\u003e Humor|Topic|Travel|Art|Subjects \u0026amp; Themes|Landscapes \u0026amp; Seascapes|Nature|Ecosystems \u0026amp; Habitats|Wilderness|History|United States|General\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSubjects:\u003c\/b\u003e Public use|Complaints against|National parks and reserves|United States\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780593185544\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eASIN:\u003c\/b\u003e B099NZXT11ISBN\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSKU:\u003c\/b\u003e SP-9780593185544\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Plume Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46999963271299,"sku":"SP-9780593185544","price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0564\/6830\/8099\/files\/9780593185544_spiral.png?v=1776827877","url":"https:\/\/sebink.com\/products\/ireericas-most-extraordinary-national-parks-and-their-least-impressed-visitotepa","provider":"Sebink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
