This is a stunning photographic guide to the six major California regions--from the Sierra Nevada to the desert--and their wildlife. In a highly readable style that mingles authority and eloquence,... This description may be from another edition of this product.
The title says it all. Poignant writings and images about the ecologically significant lands of California and a few answers to the never-ending questions about what we are to do to live our modern lives and protect the remnants of healthy lands. I think everyone should read it. International conservation scientists state that some of these lands are globally significant. In their writings, the Leopolds face the environmental realities we all must deal with. I love the writings and the photographs.
A beautiful, truly useful book

This is not just another coffee table book. It is beautiful and useful as a guide to wildlife and the land. Little known facts about the places and animals are well written and beautifully photographed. More like a guide than simply a "picture book"
