Seller's Description:
New. Book. 4to-over 9¾"-12" tall. New Haven: Yale, 2007. First Edition. 4to. Cloth, 179 pp. including index. Color photographs throughout. "The 90 gorgeous color plates and additional images in this linen-bound album evoke the serene but increasingly endangered beauty of North American wetlands from the Everglades in Florida to Crane Lake in Saskatchewan. A naturalist with a passion for wild places and elusive birds, William Burt gives us red-eyed black rails prowling Elliott Island in Maryland; simultaneous lightning strikes and lightning bugs in Douglas, Manitoba; an alligator just breaking the surface of the water at St. Marks Refuge in Florida; and an almost abstract landscape of swirling Spartina grass tufts in Old Lyme, Connecticut. "William Burt is a perfectionist whose photographs of rails and other shy and elusive birds of the wetlands are unquestionably the finest ever taken. He has set a new standard." Roger Tory Peterson." Dark green linen boards with a color photo paste-on on the front board. A brand new book.
