Watson Guptill The Nature Of America

The North American continent has an absolutely astounding range of ecological diversity that, until now, has never been visually documented in a single volume. Such a rich natural heritage is the inspiration behind this stunning book. 33 of today's greatest imagemakers, including Frans Lanting, Galen Rowell, John Shaw, Art Wolfe, Tim Fitzharris, William Neill and Bryan Peterson give us the most impressive collection of nature and wildlife photographs we at Calumet have ever seen! The 220 absolutely beautiful full-color photographs show us this land and its wildlife from compelling new perspectives, while the text and captions provide a brief natural history of each region. It also includes a calendar providing the best dates for visiting and photographing various regions and an insightful forward by the late Charles Kuralt. 192 pp., 220 color illus., 9 x 12", Hardbound.
