152 Seiten, Hardcover

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Canada's forests cover 4.2 million km squared. They are found on wetlands, plains, mountains and seacoasts, and in urban settings. These forests are as varied as the lands they occupy - from scattered conifers in the north to unusual arboreal travellers in the south, and from the imposing giants of Canada's coastal rain forest to the high-altitude survivors on rugged mountain slopes.The Forests of Canada combines outstanding colour photography with concise forest science information to present a contemporary picture of the varied tree species, landscape qualities and ecological composition of Canada's diverse forests. Additionally, it explores the Canadian approach to forest stewardship and the ongoing relationship Canadians maintain with the forests around them.
