Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Pacific coast is not just a land beside the sea, it is a land literally of the sea, entwined and cradled by innumerable salt-water straits and fiords; the marine influence is stamped boldly on almost every feature. Despite the fact that it is physically joined to a massive continent, this coastal region stands alone, like an island, with its own distinctive natural history and a scenic grandeur that neighboring regions do not share. An area such as this with its own characteristic plant and animal life is known as biome or biotic region, and as biotic regions go, this is one of the continent's smallest. It is, however, sharply differentiated, a land apart, a land with only weak ties to the continent of which it is part, but deep and pervading ties with the restless, embracing sea."- Publisher.
