The Sonoran Desert

/ March 05, 2010

Charles Bowden and Jack W. Dykinga.

This is one of the best natural history books I've ever read. The incorporation of a variety of expert authors makes it a gem. I can pick it up anytime, open to any page, and enjoy myself. A great companion on any trip to the Sonoran Desert, to pick up where the field guides leave off.
