Description
About the Book
"Takes readers on a photographic journey through one of the most biologically diverse countries on the planet. This third edition replaces more than 45 percent of the book's images with new photographs taken during the author's recent explorations of Costa Rica. Approximately half of these introduce new species; the others provide new views of species included in the previous edition. A new introduction and conservation section inform the reader of the changing realities of Costa Rica's ecosystems"--Book Synopsis
In this third edition of Costa Rica, Adrian Hepworth continues his decades-long exploration of one of the most biodiverse countries in the world.
Throughout six richly illustrated chapters, Hepworth takes readers across Costa Rica's myriad landscapes and introduces the creatures populating them. Between stunning shots of volcanic slopes and misty cloud forests, sun-soaked beaches and craggy mountain peaks, he shares photographs of some of Costa Rica's most eye-catching species--quetzals, morpho butterflies, passion flowers, and more.
Complete with brief descriptions of Costa Rica's natural history and geology as well as anecdotes from Hepworth's travels, Costa Rica is a must-have for those looking to learn more about the country's fascinating wildlife and the sublime landscapes the species inhabit.
