This review is from: A Desert Country Near the Sea: A Natural History of the Cape Region of Baja California (Hardcover)
A wonderful book on Los Cabos by a woman who obviously loves the place. It's well written, it has elegant drawings by the author and excellent photos by her husband, Herman H. Zwinger. In fact it's by far the best book in English on Los Cabos, with coverage of the plants and animals, fish and birds, ocean and desert, mountains and arroyos. A lot of the area's history is woven in and out of the book and in the appendix is a great chronology of Baja (including the capture in 1587 of the Spanish galleon Santa Ana by Thomas Cavendish at Cabo San Lucas), and painstaking lists of the plants, birds, mammals, reptiles and amphibians of the Cape Region.
