"[A] gorgeously illustrated compendium."-- Sunset "If you're looking for freeways or pathways, expressways or BART lines, this book can't help you.

Synopsis
" A] gorgeously illustrated compendium."-- Sunset This lavishly illustrated atlas takes readers off the beaten path and outside normal conceptions of California, revealing its myriad ecologies, topographies, and histories in exquisite maps and trail paintings. Based on decades of exploring the backcountry of the Golden State, artist-adventurer Obi Kaufmann blends science and art to illuminate the multifaceted array of living, connected systems like no book has done before. Kaufmann depicts layer after layer of the natural world, delighting in the grand scale and details alike. The effect is staggeringly beautiful: presented alongside California divvied into its fifty-eight counties, for example, we consider California made up of dancing tectonic plates, of watersheds, of wildflower gardens. Maps are enhanced by spirited illustrations of wildlife, keys that explain natural phenomena, and a clear-sighted but reverential text. Full of character and color, a bit larger than life, The California Field Atlas is the ultimate road trip companion and love letter to a place., #1 San Francisco Chronicle Best Seller Winner, 2018 California Book Award Gold Medal (Notable Contribution to Publishing) Winner, 2018 NCIBA Book of the Year Award (Regional Interest) Finalist, 2018 Northern California Book Awards "A gorgeously illustrated compendium."-- Sunset This lavishly illustrated atlas takes readers off the beaten path and outside normal conceptions of California, revealing its myriad ecologies, topographies, and histories in exquisite maps and trail paintings.

    I bought this Indiana Jones Lego set for our grandson & he loves it. At first I thought the packaging was odd but it turned out it was just the outside for shipping purposes. The item box itself was brand new. The seller was easy to communicate with & the price was fair. However, although the shipping fee isn’t the seller’s fault I thought it was a lot for just shipping. Since it was for our grandson it was worth it. I’d recommend this seller.

    This was a great value, and shipping was very reasonable. Packaging was done exceptionally well. Small issue with one tube and the seller made good for it exceptionally quick and honestly, and we both agreed. Perfect transaction. EBay needs more honest sellers that are willing to settle a issue rather quickly irregardless of issues. I highly recommend him as a EBay seller

    This seller was prompt to ship the item! What’s more, it arrived earlier than the timeframe that was listed. This lens was packaged in an included case which wasn’t listed but also secured with packaging paper. It was also exactly what was ordered and functions perfectly. Great price for a lens!
