A clear, straightforward account of the life and work of the notable conservationist. While the text is informative, the good-quality, black-and-white and full-color photographs are merely decorative, failing to draw readers into the material or clarify concepts. For example, the "river of grass" that is frequently alluded to has no explanatory photographs or diagrams. Nevertheless, the writing and concepts are sound. A sprinkling of quotes from Douglas, beginning with her childhood and continuing through her years of advocacy for the preservation of the Everglades brings her story to life. While this isn't a book for casual browsers, it will be useful for reports.
