Rewilding the West : Restoration in a Prairie Landscape
ISBN: 9780520267954 / Angielski / Miękka / 230 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22-25 dni roboczych. "The most destructive force in the American West is its commanding views, because they foster the illusion that we command," begins Richard Manning's vivid, anecdotally driven account of the American plains from native occupation through the unraveling of the American enterprise to today. As he tells the story of this once rich, now mostly empty landscape, Manning also describes a grand vision for ecological restoration, currently being set in motion, that would establish a prairie preserve larger than Yellowstone National Park, flush with wild bison, elk, bears, and wolves. Taking us to an...

This work advocates the restoration of the North American tallgrass prairie, which is rapidly disappearing. Historical descriptions of prairie aesthetics are outlined. As we are experiencing a worldwide mixing of plant species, prairie restoration is particularly important.

Grasses in Your Pocket: A Guide to the Prairie Grasses of the Upper Midwest
ISBN: 9781609382384 / Angielski / Miękka / 277 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 25-30 dni roboczych. At the time of European settlement, tallgrass prairie was the iconic landscape in much of the Upper Midwest. Although its extent has been drastically reduced, intact prairie remnants exist, prairie species persist along roadsides, and interest in prairie reconstruction has increased. The basic prairie matrix is formed by grasses, yet their diversity and beauty are often underappreciated because their flowering structures are highly reduced to aid in wind pollination. This much-needed addition to Iowa's popular series of laminated guides - the twenty-sixth in the series - illustrates...
