Compact yet comprehensive, The Nature of Alaska takes novice
naturalists through an easy-to-read basic explanation of species,
field identification tips, the evolution of animals and plants,
Alaska's geography, ecosystems and climate, before delving into
more detailed species identification. Exhaustively researched,
beautifully illustrated throughout and organized into color-coded
sections, The Nature of Alaska highlights over 300 common and
unique plants, animals, and the state's outstanding natural
attractions. Each listing is accompanied by a detailed full-color
drawing, the species' common and scientific name, its size, a
simple description and an indication of its habitat. Brief comments
provide more information on each species and assist in further
identification. A section at the back of the book includes maps and
descriptions of Alaska's various regions, and then listings of the
major natural attractions within each of those regions. Hikes and
scenic drives are also described, along with accompanying maps and
tips - and a handy checklist at the very back allows enthusiasts to
keep track of the species they have personally observed.
