Synopsis: You are probably aware of Floridas world famous natural wonders like its coastline, the Everglades, and its colourful coral reefs. Did you know, however, that Florida also houses an abundance of less publicised natural delights including one of the largest underwater cave systems in the continental US, a type of prairie found nowhere else in the US, and an ancient forest system perched on prehistoric dunes? Jeff Ripple leads readers on an exploration of the entire state, acquainting them with the geology, ecosystems, wildlife, and weather, while explaining how to help protect Floridas natural treasures for future generations to enjoy. His spectacular colour photographs bring readers face-to-face with wild creatures and breathtaking vistas, and capture the spirit of Florida as never before.
