A new travel book, “Go See America: 118 of the USA’s Greatest Hits (According to a Guy Who Visited Them All),” lists 11 different Colorado destinations, including Colorado National Monument, among the must-see spots in the country.

With his new book, writer and filmmaker Matt Tory aims to take readers on a humorous, heartfelt tour of the most unforgettable spots across the USA – all places he actually visited.

Colorado’s Rocky Mountain National Park, Million Dollar Highway, Garden of the Gods, Black Canyon of the Gunnison, Maroon Bells, Independence Pass, Glenwood Springs, Colorado National Monument, Last Dollar Road, Great Sand Dunes and Mesa Verde National Park were all chosen for their incredible views and adventure opportunities.

“[Colorado] is where America unapologetically shows off,” Tory wrote in the book.

After exploring all 50 states and every national park in the contiguous United States, Tory decided to share tips, stories and personal photos he collected along the way. The result is a travel book that’s not just another boring bucket list.

“This book is a nudge to get out there, let yourself be wowed, and remember there’s something worth seeing in just about every corner of the USA … It’s an encouragement, basically, to go see America,” Tory wrote in the book’s introduction.

Blending iconic destinations with overlooked gems, “Go See America” is a fun, lighthearted journey through the most wonderful, wild and weird corners of the country.

The book is available now on Amazon.
