What is Walks & Rambles on Cape Cod and the Islands (A Naturalist's Hiking Guide) about?

Cape Cod, Martha's Vineyard, The very names conjure images of endless sandy beaches, old whaling towns, lighthouses, cranberry bogs, and sheltered coves. Here, the scenery changes with the seasons--from colorful wildflowers to fall foliage, from migrating birds to wintering seals--and this naturalist's hiking guide tells you when and where to see it all. The region includes some of the best bird-watching trails in the salt marsh walks, woodland rambles, beach strolls, wildlife refuges, and the magnificent 40-mile-long Cape Cod National Seashore. With a climate tempered by the sea, summers linger into fall and winters are mild enough for year-round hiking. Of the 35 walks described in this updated second edition, 24 are mainland jaunts, 7 explore Martha's Vineyard, and 4 are on Nantucket. Each description includes a map, directions to the trailhead, and commentary on local and natural history. Great for summer visitors looking for refreshing day trips off the beaten path. A must for residents interested in the local and natural history of their home.
