description: Not a field guide (though guidees would be well advised to carry it along), but rather an examination of the relationships among the sea and land from Cape Mendocino to Cape Flattery. Starting in the coastal waters with their populations of marine animals and seabirds, the author examines the successive habitats found landward, from seashore, estuaries, dune, and freshwater wetlands to the great temperate conifer forests. With 19 color plates and many line drawings. Acidic paper. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
