About The Book
Austere and immense, the Arctic region harbors a unique diversity of flora and fauna adapted to this harsh and unforgiving ecosystem including shrubs, grasses, mosses, sedges and lichens and a variety of hardy wildlife from the tiny lemming to the immense polar bear and bowhead whale. A region previously only visited by explorers, the Artic has attracted more and more tourists in the last decade. This beautifully illustrated guide highlights over 140 familiar and unique species. Laminated for durability, this lightweight, pocket-sized folding guide is an excellent source of portable information and ideal for field use by novice and expert explorers alike. Made in the USA.
