CENTRAL BEAUTY: WILDFLOWERS AND FLOWERING SHRUBS OF THE SOUTHERN INTERIOR OF BRITISH COLUMBIA

Can$26.95

Central Beauty explores the wildflowers and flowering shrubs commonly found in the portions of British Columbia typically known as the southern interior - very roughly an east/west line drawn through Williams Lake, B.C. The southern limit of the area extends well into the states of Washington, Idaho and Montana.

NEIL L. JENNINGS is an ardent fly fisher, hiker and photographer who loves "getting down in the dirt" pursuing his keen interest in wildflowers. For 22 years he was a co-owner of Country Pleasures, a fly-fishing retailer in Calgary. He fly-fishes extensively, both in fresh and saltwater, and his angling pursuits usually lead him to wildflower investigations in a variety of environments. He has taught fly-fishing-related courses in Calgary for over 20 years, and his photographs and writings on the subject have appeared in a number of outdoor magazines. Neil has previously written three books on western wildflowers - Uncommon Beauty, Alpine Beauty and Prairie Beauty, all published by Rocky Mountain Books. He is also the author of Behind the Counter, a book on fly-fishing, also published by Rocky Mountain Books. Neil lives in Calgary, Alberta, with Linda, his wife of over 30 years. They spend a lot of time outdoors together chasing fish, flowers and, as often as possible, grandchildren.
