Requests:  0 Summary:  Best-selling author David Quammen takes readers on a breathtaking journey through America's most inspiring and imperiled ecosystem--Yellowstone National Park--in this monumental book on America's first national park. Yellowstone's storied past, rich ecosystem, and dynamic landscape are brilliantly portrayed in a captivating mosaic of photographs and eloquently written text that blend history, science, and research from the field. As much a visual ode to nature as an intimate tour of one of the world's most celebrated conservation areas, this gorgeous book illuminates the park's treasures grand and small--from the iconic Old Faithful to the rare gray wolf; from misty mountain tops to iridescent springs; and from sweeping valleys to flourishing wild blooms. In four illuminating sections that combine photos, sidebars, and graphics with elegantly crafted text, this book brings readers deeper into the life of the park than ever before, both commemorating its beauty and highlighting its challenges. This book is an essential addition to the National Parks' 100th anniversary celebration and will remind readers why conservation is worth every effort.--Amazon.com.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status Due Date   Ewa Beach P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 333.7509 Qu Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Business, Science & Technology 333.7509 Qu Checked out 06/12/2024 Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 333.7509 Quamm Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kailua-Kona Public Library Adult Nonfiction 333.7509 Qu Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Nonfiction 333.7509 Qu Checked In   Add Copy to MyList
