The first wildflower guide to focus on the Aleutian Islands, "Wildflowers of Unalaska Island" offers detailed descriptions, color photographs, and lovely, original drawings of over 160 species of flowering plants. Ideal for everyone from casual hikers to serious botanists, the guide is botanically precise, yet keeps technical terms to a minimum for ease of use and identification in the field. It is sized and designed to slip easily into a backpack and can be used as a quick field reference or more leisurely browsed. The introduction includes background on the unique geologic history, climate, and habitats of this verdant but windswept archipelago. The ethnobotanical information on the Aleutor Unangannames and uses of the plants broadens the reader s experience of the traditional Native culture of the region. Suzi Golodoff has been a resident of Unalaska Island for more than forty years. She teaches locally and offers Aleutian birding and natural history tours.
