Henry and Quinby present a guide to 38 of the old-growth forests of Ontario, Canada. Beautifully illustrated throughout with color and b&w photographs, maps, and diagrams, the text will appeal to nature lovers, history buffs, and other general readers. Coverage includes an introduction to old-growth forests and their value, followed by sections on the five types of old-growth forest in Ontario--each containing a discussion of the history and ecology of the specific type of forest, and guides to selected forests of that type--and a discussion of old-growth forest conservation efforts. Henry is an ecologist who has worked with nonprofits as well as the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and the US National Park Services; Quinby has worked in forest ecology and conservation for 30 years and taught at several universities in Canada and the US.
