From the Author
The story of one of the world's most enchanting ecosystems.
MONTEVERDE is the culmination of two trips I took to Costa Rica in 1994, one in the wet season, the other in the dry season. While in Monteverde, I interviewed dozens of scientists and residents for whom the cloud forest is a major part of their lives. I tell the history of Monteverde and describe the ecology of the forest through these peoples' eyes. The book, which contains more than 50 of my photographs, earned a starred review from Booklist and is currently nominated as a Best Book for Young Adults by the American Library Association. The book, however, is a valuable introduction to this unique, remote place for adults as well as young people and serves as great background for anyone interested in travel, biology, or the environment.
