CRATERS OF THE MOON NATURAL HISTORY ASSOCIATION

This on-line bookstore is operated by Craters of the Moon Natural History Association. CRMONHA was founded in 1959 to aid and promote the educational and scientific activities of the National Park Service. As a nonprofit organization authorized by Congress, CRMONHA makes interpretive materials available to park visitors by sale or free distribution. Proceeds support the interpretive and research programs at Craters of the Moon National Monument & Preserve, Hagerman Fossil Beds National Monument, and Minidoka Internment National Monument.

The following books are just a sampling of what is offered in our bookstores. We have selected those titles most useful to the park visitor when planning a visit to the parks in our region, but many other titles are available. Please call us at (208)527-3257 ext. 300 if you're looking for something not included on the web site.

Consider joining the Association. Annual dues are $25.00. Members receive a 15% discount on all purchases through CRMONHA and in Cooperating Association bookstores in most national parks. A membership application is available online.

Enjoy browsing through the books. If you ever visit our "unearthly landscapes" be sure to stop by our bookstore!
