Nature's Strongholds : The World's Great Wildlife Reserves
Editorial Reviews
From Scientific American
From Botswana to the Camargue, from Denali to Komodo Island, this book covers more than 600 reserves in over 80 countries. The authors, long-time nature writers and conservationists, have included information on how to visit these extraordinary sites, their ecological significance and some historical background. Most of the world's charismatic and endangered species--many depicted here in gorgeous color photographs--owe their continued existence to such reserves, the last places on earth where nature remains more or less intact. The volume itself is a terrific resource.
