Recenzii
"This rare gem of a book is an excellent combination of art and science. Descriptions of ecology and natural history are accurately and eloquently written for students, scientists, and all readers, and the photos are amazing. Tim Palmer's field guide is my new 'life list' for Oregon rivers, featuring many waterways that I've still not discovered even after 40 years of studying these streams."
—Stan Gregory, emeritus professor of fisheries, Oregon State University
"Here is an essential tool for anyone who paddles, fishes, explores, and wants to understand the natural history of our rivers and the challenges they face. Thanks to Tim Palmer, we now have the field guide that Oregon's rivers deserve."
—John DeVoe, former executive director, WaterWatch
"From desert rivers flowing through basalt gorges to coastal streams cascading through temperate rainforests, Oregon's diversity of rivers is among the greatest anywhere. Tim's much-needed book will get you to the best places to paddle, hike, fish, and explore. This excellent guide will inform and motivate every reader to enjoy rivers and work for their protection."
