Summary: A Complete Cape Cod Guide
Comment: We like this very comprehensive guide to Cape Cod because it has everything in one book that we and our friends need to explore the Cape. The author begins with the fascinating story of how the Cape was built as the Ice Age came to an end and leads into the environments, plant life, animals and birds of the Cape. Especially valuable to those wishing to explore and 'savor' their surroundings, are the 50 sites that represent the natural environments of the Cape. Details about access, geology, history, beaches, what to see and do, and unique features of the sites are available along with maps for hikers and paddlers. The clear illustrations of plant and animal life are helpful, as well as the lists of birds commonly seen on the Cape. What a treasure this book will be for Cape Cod dwellers and nature lovers of all sorts!

Summary: My favorite Cape Cod field guide
Comment: As a hiker, canoe & kayaker, birdwatcher, guide book collector and Cape Cod resident I feel qualified to say that I'm in love with this book. Moreover, as someone who managed a local bookshop on Cape Cod for 12 years, I'm quite aware of how far above the pack "The Nature of Cape Cod" is. As much as I like to collect field guides, I only want to carry one in the actual 'field' and this is definitely my choice for the one detailing plants, trees, flora & fauna, with the geology it all sits upon and environments it creates. It's also a treasure trove of secluded sites richly described and beautifully mapped.
