One of the many things I love about Great Britain is the combination of its remarkable number of natural habitats and their relative close proximity to one another. Even if time spent exploring is limited to a mere weekend, one can traverse multiple natural habitats and in the process be afforded the delights to be found observing the flora, fauna, geology, and geography each has to offer.
This past November, Princeton University Press‘ WildGuides series added the fully revised and updated second edition of Britain’s Habitats: A Field Guide to the Wildlife Habitats of Great Britain and Ireland – a book that should absolutely be on the bookshelves of anyone living in or visiting the ‘Scepter’d Isle.
Reformatted into a handy field guide format from its original edition, this new volume includes fully updated maps, information and imagery to offer all exploring the remarkable British Isles with the most up-to-date, accessible, and easily carried single volume work available today.
