the Book:
This unique natural history field guide is a full color,
richly illustrated book, designed to be user friendly and non-technical. The Tug Hill
region of New York State extends from Lake Ontario to the Adirondacks and this guide
covers the natural communities of plants, birds, mammals, amphibians, reptiles, and even
insects found in the region. |
Sample Two-Page Spread Showing Birds, Mammals, and Insects of the Successional
Forest Plant Community

The book is
divided into four parts: an introduction containing general information about the region,
uplands, lowlands, and an appendix. Each of the ten chapters covers a prevalent plant
community and consists of a narrative, illustrations, and Facts, Tips, and Lore - a
potpourri of interesting facts and information on species likely to be found in the plant
community. There is a color-coded edge band and symbol key for quick guidance to the
contents. The appendix includes a species list and bibliography.
