Description
"This book contains chapters on the eastern Sierra's geologic story, weather and climate, plant communities, arthropods, native fishes, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals. The authors emphasize relationships and the ingenious ways that plant and animal life have evolved and adapted to the harsh environments of this area. Maps, diagrams, photographs, and drawings illustrate the text. Written with few technical terms, Sierra East is a source book for the layperson and students on university field trips."--BOOK JACKET.
