Vermont Ecology

This book is an introduction to the ecology of Vermont. Johnson, the state naturalist, visited every corner of the state in compiling this concise guide. The book is divided into several sections, covering geology and prehistory, mountains and forests, waters and wetlands, and open land. In his descriptions of the separate environment types, Johnson details some of the common trees, plants, reptiles, birds, and mammals that are characteristically found there. Appendices include an annotated list of places to visit, a list of conservation organizations, references, and common and scientific names of plants of animals mentioned in the text. The book is illustrated with black-and-white photographs. The text is quite informative and clearly written. Whether you are looking for wild places to visit, or want to learn more about your favorite parks or scenic spots, this book is a great place to start and would make a fine reference for anyone interested in the nature of Vermont.
