Featuring wetlands to visit all around the country, descriptions of the rich bird, insect and plant life that can be found there, and some of the innovative ways we can protect and restore them, 'Life in the Shallows' is a key resource for those who want to explore, understand and care for these precious places"--Publisher's website.
