It features contributions from 20 scientists, explorers, and land managers from both the US and Canada. Chapters detail the geology, climate, flora, and fauna of the eastern alpine ecosystem; they profile 12 major alpine ranges across the region. The book is noted for its high visual quality, containing over 800 photographs and 20 maps.

New England Peaks: It includes detailed profiles of iconic ranges such as Mount Washington and the Presidential Range in New Hampshire, and Katahdin in Maine. Canadian Massifs: Significant coverage is given to the Monts Chic-Chocs and Monts McGerrigle in Québec, as well as the Gros Morne and Long Range Mountains in Newfoundland.
