Reflections on the Imperiled Everglades
featuring the photography of
Joel M. Curzon
“A deeply personal and passionate plea to preserve the natural areas of southern Florida, this book portrays the turbulent natural and human history of this harsh yet delicate region. Joel Curzon’s marvelous photographs are sure to inspire readers to reflect on how the wonders of southern Florida are in danger of vanishing unless restoration plans are enacted immediately.”
–William F. Loftus, Ph.D., recently retired Research Ecologist with the U. S. Geological Survey's Everglades National Park Field Station. Now president of Aquatic Research & Communication, LLC.
“Joel Curzon bring us into an Everglades of astonishing beauty and infinite meaning. Few people have seen the landscapes and the living creatures of the Everglades as Curzon’s photos reveal them, and his insights explain why our own government is damaging, instead of restoring, millions of acres of National Park and other protected lands and waters in south Florida.”
–Joe Browder has led efforts to protect and restore the Everglades for almost half a century.
“Joel Curzon’s Reflections on the Imperiled Everglades is a visually stunning journey through the heart of the Everglades and its reflection on the soul of man.”
–David P. Reiner, President, Friends of the Everglades
“The Everglades is not just a place of great beauty, it’s a deep test for our ability (and willingness) to make up for the damage we’ve caused. This book should help inspire us in the right direction.”
–Bill McKibben, author, Deep Economy
