Quarto, navy blue cloth (hardcover), gilt letters, 227 pp. Fine in a Fine dust jacket. From the dust jacket: During the past nine yuears, photographer Martha Strawn has taken more than 40,000 photographs of the alligator -- in freshwater marshes and swamps, lakes and ponds, rivers, bayous, brackish estuaries, and saltwater coastal marshes and backwaters, from Texas to North Carolina. Alligators, Prehistoric Presence in the American Landscape offers a selection of 151 of Strawn's photographs in a unique book that combines art, science, history, folklore, land ethics, and literature to tell the story of America's southern landscape and one of its most evocative creatures. For at least 65 million years, the alligator has inhabited the North American continent. One of the few direct links to the age of the dinosaur, these ancient reptiles move gracefully through the water but are relatively awkward on land (though they can charge aggressively if threatened). Strawn photographs these remarkable creatures along the white sands of the Florida landscape and the highways of Louyisiana Cajun country, in citrus and avocado groves, and in developments throughout the suburban South. Here are the wetlands and deepwaters where alligators feed, bask in the sun, perform courtship dances, mate, nest, watch over their young -- and, increasingly, encounter the human inhabitants of their ancient landscape. Strawn covers such topics as mating and reproduction, hunting, loss of habitat, resource management, and the commercial meat and skin industries. Three personal essays bring home the relationship between alligators and humans. Natural History, Alligators, Herpetology. bslic.
