In this book�s introduction, Greenaway says that �adventure educators have a responsibility to find out what kind of impact adventurous experiences are having. And as educators, it makes sense to assist and assess the learning experiences which are aroused by adventure. Through reviewing, facilitators demonstrate that they care about what participants experience, value what participants have to say, and are interested in the progress of each individual's learning and development.�  �This book starts with some challenging questions, then explores some models of learning and development, ending with descriptions of a number of active and creative reviewing methods� (Introduction).

Some 2,000 destinations nationwide are identified and briefly described. Indexed by name, facilities (e.g. food, gift shops, guided tours, handicapped accessibility), and type or subject of the main attraction (aviation, birds, decorative arts).

Author of the pivotal Adventure Education (1973), this more current book reflects a shift in interest within adventure education to include environmental awareness.  Greenaway calls it a �passionate book� that �illustrates how much young people can achieve when given the opportunity� but suggests that one must wade through a �meandering current of political and social commentary� to get to the meat of the educational principles.
