A personal journey across four continents to see some of the world's great national parks.

This pocket-sized mountain range, rising dramatically to 8,000 feet, is Czechoslovakia's frontier with Poland. With no sea coast, no major lake, and little prospect of holidays abroad, the people of this land-locked country look on the High Tatras as their national retreat.
The Communist government declared the mountains a national park in 1948. Today they are even more beautiful and free and wild -holding now an even more important place in the hearts of Slovaks and Czechs for whom the Tatras mean so much.
