Florida has more swamps and marshes than any other state except Alaska. One-third of it is covered with cypress domes, wet prairies, mangrove swamps, sawgrass glades, pitcher plant savannahs, and other wetlands. Swamps in Florida are the last refuge of panthers, wood storks, black bears, and many rare plants such as the ghost orchid and hand fern. In this intimate account of a world of biological richness, Ron Larson offers everyone from bird watchers and canoeists to botanists and policy makers an introduction to Florida's forested wetlands.
