The Forests of California, by Obi Kaufmann<\/strong>, released in September 2020 by Heyday Books<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Obi Kaufmann, who brought us The California Field Atlas<\/em> (#1 San Francisco Chronicle Best Seller) presents another major work, The Forests of California<\/em>. This is the third of six books in Kaufmann\u2019s planned series exploring the state\u2019s diverse environment and is the first of his planned \u201cCalifornia Lands\u201d trilogy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An atlas is a collection of maps, illustrations and text. A field atlas is designed to be used in the \u2018field\u2019 as an ongoing resource, and Kaufmann gives us something rich, distinctive and fascinating. Dive in wherever you like to find a page that engages and keeps you turning more pages, or if you prefer, stop to learn more about a specific forest or tree in California. This book is not just a reference tool, but could be seen as an invitation to think differently about habitat, vegitative alliances and the hope we can hold through better understanding of our relationship to place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
