Grandeur of the Canadian Rockies

By Meghan J. Ward

Book Overview

Hardcover photographic celebration of the Canadian Rockies by Paul Zizka, with place-based captions by Meghan J. Ward.

Grandeur of the Canadian Rockies presents a broad visual journey through Banff, Canmore, Lake Louise, Jasper, Kananaskis, Waterton and Yoho. Paul Zizka's photographs capture mountain peaks, lakes, valleys, changing light and the large-scale landscapes that define the region.

Meghan J. Ward's accompanying captions identify places and add concise geographic context while allowing the photography to remain the primary focus. The hardcover format gives the collection a substantial presentation suited to gift, travel and regional-interest markets. Across the collection, familiar destinations are presented through the changing conditions and varied terrain of the Canadian Rockies, from mountain peaks and lakes to broad valleys and protected landscapes.

Created for both visitors and readers who know the Rockies well, the book offers a durable photographic record of some of western Canada's most recognizable mountain environments without tying the collection to a single season or anniversary.
