A new classic gets the deluxe treatment! Following the success of
Obi Kaufmann’s bestselling The California Field Atlas, this
Deluxe Edition features a larger format showcasing Kaufmann’s
sumptuous watercolors and lettering. In addition to its larger
size, the Deluxe Edition has illustrated endpapers, a ribbon
bookmark, premium paper, and gold embossing on a luxurious
leather-like cover. This is a must-have for any book lover, or for
fans of nature guides, atlases, and works that fuse science and
art. Plus, with a limited print run and deluxe materials, this
edition makes a stunning gift. A winner of multiple awards,
including the 2018 California Book Award (Notable Contribution to
Publishing) and the NCIBA Book of the Year Award (Regional
Interest), and a #1Â San Francisco
Chronicle bestseller, The California Field
Atlas is unlike any other book. Artist-adventurer Obi
Kaufmann takes readers beyond normal conceptions of California,
blending science and art to illuminate the state’s multifaceted
array of living, connected systems. Kaufmann unveils layer after
layer of the natural world, depicting its myriad ecologies,
topographies, and histories in exquisite maps and trail paintings.
The effect is staggeringly beautiful: a California made up of
dancing tectonic plates, watersheds, and wildflower gardens. In
addition to maps, this atlas offers spirited illustrations of
wildlife, keys that explain natural phenomena, and a clear-sighted
but reverential text. Full of character and in a class all its
own, The California Field Atlas is the ultimate love
letter to the Golden State.
