A celebration of Pennsylvanias rich and diverse natural beauty, this book documents the states tenacious yet increasingly endangered wilderness, from the Atlantic Coastal Plain, across the Appalachian and Allegheny Mountains, to the shores of Lake Erie.

Conveying the power of wild Pennsylvania, the book makes an eloquent case for the preservation of the states natural heritage.
