Covers 20 major cities; arranged for easy reference according to the five regions of the U.S. Shows how to get to city zoos, parks and botanical gardens and describes nature hikes, bike trips, bird watching, game preserves and more. Includes maps for each city discussed. A comprehensive bibliography includes directories to local nature and outdoor organizations. Illustrated with photographs. No library descriptions found. |
