Small b&w photographs accompany the text by this former National Audubon Society editor, who simultaneously extols and fears for the future of the natural beauty of Long Island Sound. Considering that over 20 million people live within 100 miles of this 110-mile long body of water separating Long Island from the New York and Connecticut mainland, Buckles' ode to this apparently thriving, but marginally sustained, wetland ecology waxes optimistic despite the encroachment of development and pollution. As this is a personal natural history, no index or bibliography is included. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
