Produktbeschreibung
There is a magical place at the edge of Africa where rainforest meets ocean, where elephants and buffalos walk white sand beaches, and hippos, crocs, and sea turtles share the surf. The forest rises a hundred feet tall, full of life, and a layered complexity stretches far beyond the horizon. Forests, grasslands, rivers, and lagoons form a unique landscape mosaic. There is no place like it on Earth. Gabon has a story to tell. Its landscapes inspire explorers and scientists with a forest-to-ocean fabric rich in biological diversity. Expeditions are unlocking a treasure chest of knowledge on biology and ecology--the science behind conservation. Unprecedented biodiversity studies are discovering a wealth of species, including several new to science. In this updated edition of the classic original, photographs by Carlton Ward Jr. and essays by leaders in conservation and biodiversity bring light to the unseen wonders of Gabon, from its smallest creatures to its broadest landscapes to the people who call it home.
