Illustrations (some in color). Maps. Resources. Bibliography. Species Lists. Index. Inscribed by the author on the fep. Inscription reads to William & Rochelle, Enjoy Natural Israel! Michal Strutin. DJ and cover have some wear and soiling, and a few dings. Michal's award-winning nonfiction focuses on natural and cultural history and travel. Her eight nonfiction books include Places of Grace: the Natural Landscapes of the American Midwest with photographer Gary Irving; Discovering Natural Israel, a high-spirited discovery of flora, fauna, and people; Florida State Parks: a Complete Recreation Guide; and History Hikes of the Smokies. Michal's articles have appeared in the New York Times, Los Angeles Times, Tablet, Outside, and many others. She worked as an editor at National Parks, Outside, San Francisco Examiner, and The Washington Post, and copy editor at Rolling Stone. She is also a research librarian, most recently serving as science librarian at Santa Clara University. Strutin, former editor for Outside and National Parks magazines and others, as well as an author of natural history books, writes an account of the flora, fauna, history, and culture of Israel, based on considerable experience traveling the country by various conveyances (car, bus, foot, and camel). Color photographs and valuable lists of plant and animal scientific names and Israeli names to supplement the usual names used throughout the text. Includes an extensive resource list. Chosen as a Book of the Month Club/Traditions main selection. Sun-spangled coral reefs and stark desert canyons. Luxuriant green hillsides and cascading rivers. Hyenas and wolves, otters and ostriches, countless birds and wildflowers. Israel's natural diversity rivals most places on Earth. In Discovering Natural Israel, award-winning nature writer Michal Strutin takes us on a journey through a land where three continents meet, where natural and human history intertwine in often surprising ways. With our spirited guide, we embark on a camel expedition into the sere Eilat Mountains. We stand enchanted before the shimmering waterfalls of Ein Gedi, where King David once wrote psalms and where visitors now watch ibex and hyrax leap among the cliffs. We climb Israel's green northern hills, quilted in spring with iris and poppies, cyclamen and anemones. Artfully weaving ancient history and lore with tales of modern adventure, Michal reveals how the land and people of Israel have changed over the millennia. Brimming with passion, intelligence, humor, and grace, Discovering Natural Israel is Michal Strutin's testament to a land where nature and people have interacted since the dawn of civilization. It is an eloquent tribute to a beauteous land whose geography is inscribed upon her heart.

Engraving style and date suggests hand of Charles John Downes, engraver for maps accompanying Hasted's History of Kent'. The other reference to a copy (RYE/132/25, 26) in the Archive of Rye Corporation, at East Sussex Record Office, the entry for which states that the map 'Shows principal sewers, bridges and sluices to illustrate proposed embanking of Salts Channel W. of Five Waterings Sluice and Sewer in Playden and Iden, and a new cut to the Rother. Conventional drawings of churches, houses and mills with their names.' The second description refers to a 'separate printed estimate of the expense of the works', not present here.
