They have captured the attention of ecologists due to the harsh environment to which cedar glades have adapted. In this unique field guide, readers will find themselves transported into the rare and harsh landscape of Tennessee s cedar glades. Loaded with clear photographs and detailed descriptions of over 140 common plants and animals, this guide will help the casual observer discover the delicate beauty of these unique landscapes.
