Habitats
Tony Hare
Hardcover (John Wiley & Sons Inc, Dec. 1, 1994)The fancy computer technology which blends color photographs into a single, fold-out composite landscape of each habitat looks ridiculously artificial, but the nicest thing about this 9x11.5" book is its clear, informative text. Also, the non-computer "enhanced" photographs are superb. Fourteen types of habitat are covered in depth. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
