Summary "Everglades Wildguide" by Jean Craighead George is a scientific publication written in the late 20th century. This detailed handbook explores the unique natural history of Everglades National Park in Florida, highlighting its diverse plant and animal species, many of which are found nowhere else in the United States. It serves as both an informative resource and a guide for visitors wishing to understand and appreciate this subtropical ecosystem. The opening of the guide immerses readers in the rich ecology of the Everglades, describing its various landscapes such as the mangrove swamp, cypress heads, and pinelands. The text elaborates on the interplay between water, fire, and soil dynamics, emphasizing the importance of each ecosystem component. George aims to illustrate how these interconnected environments support myriad wildlife while also shedding light on human impacts that threaten this delicate balance, setting the stage for a deeper exploration of the Everglades' unrivaled biodiversity.
