Scuba steve: I own eight different waterfall books for different states, This book by far is the best, it has GPS coordinates for parking, and coordinates for the waterfalls, it less a ton of waterfalls. Only thing to be careful of is private property. The book will list when it is in private property, but I want to a few of them and turn back after seeing no trespassing signs

David, UK photographer: This book combines an encyclopaedic listing and description of the waterfalls of North Carolina with coffee-table quality in printing and photography. In my experience, that's unique. The book is printed in a large format on glossy paper and there are excellent photographs of 400 waterfalls, with several hundred minor ones described. This is the pinnacle of waterfall guides.

R and P: This book is jam packed with information about waterfalls in North Carolina. Has many waterfall that I did not even know existed. And I am an avid hiker. The navigation of the book is nice becuase you at a map to find the section of North Carolina you are looking for a waterfall. He rates them on beauty and photographability. If that’s a word. It has pictures of the waterfalls that might be worth making a special effort to go look at. It is a great book to keep up with all the falls that you have been to. And also all the falls you want to go to. I pinpointed my location on the map and used a string to find which ones were nearest so I could start close and explore. Worth having in your library. He also references some other sources of info.

Rosakins: I bought this to take on a week long trip to NC. The pictures are beautiful, the directions I used were accurate, and I can see how this book would be of value to someone who spends a lot of time in NC. As it turned out, it wasn't the best choice for my recent trip, but that's no reason to reduce the rating. I can, however, see using this on a future trip. Here's why it wasn't the best choice for me this time. First, I wasn't familiar with the area, so the organization of the book was not helpful without an actual map. (I should have bought the map by Kevin Adams that goes with this.) Second, I'm not so enthusiastic (or fit) to go bush-whacking to see a waterfall or anything else, so perhaps an index of falls with difficulty levels would be helpful as an appendix. (Perhaps this was also part of the map I didn't buy.) Third, my plan was to hike with my dog to waterfalls, but I wasn't staying in the area where there were any waterfalls close by, so I could only use this for a few waterfalls, and those were ones listed on most websites. Now that I have the book, I will be able to plan my next NC visit to take in more of the lovely falls.
