Seasons on the Pacific Coast, April 6, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Seasons on the Pacific Coast: A Naturalist's Notebook (Hardcover)
Seasons on the Pacific Coast takes the reader by the hand - with childlike delight - to show us the stunning natural diversity of this vibrant shoreline world. To me, a gentle tone and wealth of scientific information make Seasons a volume to savor for the casual visitor or native naturalist. Tweit presents short, engaging profiles of individual species which, taken together, tell the larger story of "connection that binds humans and wild lives everywhere". Rather than preaching conservation, she instead encourages us to look at Seasons as a "family album", renewing our sense of kinship with a whole coast of fascinating characters. I particularly love the exquisite watercolor illustrations that highlight each chapter. It's a lovely read.
