The following is the text that appears on the inside dust cover and describes what the book is about.

"Through 150 color images, photographer Jack Anthony has captured the beauty of 100 waterfalls of north Georgia, a region that stretches from Lookout Mountain in the west to the Chattooga River in the east. High average rainfalls totaling over 50 inches to almost 80 inches a year in the northeast corner of the state, combined with the heights of the southern Appalachians, provide ideal conditions for creation of these numerous and beautiful waterfalls.

While many of the waterfalls require some effort to reach, Jack’s images enable you to engage in virtual tours of your own to these remarkable wonders of nature. Accompany Jack on his visits to the waterfalls, in all seasons and in varied weather conditions.

Begin the tour with the waterfalls of Rabun County, where rugged mountains and extensive rainfall spawn the West Fork of the National Wild and Scenic Chattooga River. From there, experience the power of the multiple waterfalls in Tallulah Gorge State Park. Towns, Habersham and Stephens Counties are home to a number of popular falls, most notably, Toccoa Falls, Panther Creek Falls and the waterfalls in the High Shoals Scenic Area.

From the mountainsides of White County come tumbling the waters of Anna Ruby Falls, Dukes Creek Falls, Dodd Creek and Raven Cliffs Falls. Nearby, the national forest surrounds and protects several more interesting falls, including the waterfalls on Helton Creek in Union County and DeSoto Falls in Lumpkin County. At Amicalola Falls State Park in Dawson County the long drop of Amicalola Falls makes it one of the most visited in the state.

The waterfalls in Gilmer, Fannin and Murray Counties include Long Creek Falls on the Appalachian National Scenic Trail near the trail’s southern terminus, Jack’s River Falls in the Cohutta Wilderness Area, the waterfalls on Mill Creek, and Falls Branch Falls on the Benton MacKaye Trail. Although the rainfall in Walker and Dade Counties is not as great as in the eastern part of the state, in the wetter seasons the high plunging waterfalls of Cloudland Canyon State Park and Lula Falls within the Lula Lake Land Trust make a fitting end to this photographic tour of these north Georgia wonders of nature.

For those who are interested in a real tour of these waterfalls, the last section of the book has directions with GPS coordinates to aid in locating the waterfalls on a topographic map."
