Rezension zu „Field Guide to the Natural World of New York City “
"I have lived in New York City for all my professional life, even as most of the research I do for my books takes me to exotic locations such as Antarctica, Alaska, Patagonia, and the Great Barrier Reef. However, as Leslie Day's wonderful book informs us, the five boroughs of New York can be as interesting and exotic as that of any place on earth. You don't need a fancy research vessel - just a field guide, a sturdy pair of shoes, a Metrocard, and a desire to see the life teeming in our midst. Welcome to the Big Apple (Malus sylvestris gigas)." - Richard Ellis, author, artist, and research associate at the American Museum of Natural History "An indispensable guide both to the natural history of New York and to the multitude of nature that continues to thrive in the city all around us." - Kevin Baker, author Paradise Alley, Dreamland, and Strivers Row"
