New York: Random House, (1989) dj. Hardcover first edition - Described as a "beautifully proportioned mix of personal reminiscence and natural history" this is an intensive study of a single ecosystem. "Hammock" refers to a hardwood grove in Florida's open marshes and pine woods, and Bulow Hammock, north of Daytona, is one of the last stands of these groves on the East Coast, a woodland-marsh where sub-tropical and north-temperate vegetation meet. Conservationists saved it from developers, and it is now a State Park. Bibliography. 170 pp. ISBN: 0-871566761.
