We used this book for a trip we took in the spring to Yosemite--I've been to Yosemite in all four seasons, and spring is definitely the best time to go--and were able to get much out of it. It's packed with information that, we found, to be quite accurate, though it really ought to be updated annually. But if you're looking for good pictures of the park, this is not the guide for you. (Most of the photos displayed throughout are black and white and really are not the best. Even the cover of Yosemite Falls is weak, completely missing the beautiful shot of both the upper and lower falls--how could this be missed? So if you want quality photos, go elsewhere.) I haven't seen all other books on Yosemite, but this one seemed to be popular, as it is even sold in gift shops in Yosemite Valley. I just don't think you will go wrong with this one.
The best!
