Regarded by many as the best such book for any state, Virginia's Endangered Species is an attractive and up-to-date reference book on the rare and vulnerable plants and animals of Virginia. For each species identified the following information is provided: a description of the taxon; a written summary and a map of its distribution in Virginia and North America; an overview of its natural history; a synopsis of its legal and recommended statuses; a discussion of threats to its continued survival in Virginia; and recommendations for its conservation. Color plates (229) illustrate most described taxa.
The volume will be of value to scientists, educators, librarians, environmentalists, planners, attorneys, and all others who are involved with or concerned about the conservation of rare plants and animals. Its relevance is not limited to Virginia, but extends to throughout the middle Atlantic and middle Appalachian regions. This book has been named the Outstanding Book for 1992 by the Southeastern Section of The Wildlife Society and a notable government publication by the American Library Association.
