Join author Matt Davis as he takes us on a virtual tour of some of the nation’s most famous parks. Showcasing dozens of his original photographs, he’ll provide interesting details about how the parks were created, the unique landscapes and wildlife they protect, and some of the challenges they face from ever-increasing tourism.

A Massachusetts native, Matt Davis is an avid traveler who has visited 35 countries and crossed the U.S. by car on over 40 road trips. He is the author of a travel memoir, At Home in the World: Reflections of a Travel Addict and is also the regularly featured travel expert for the Studio 10 program on WJAR-TV in Providence.
