Relicts of a Beautiful Sea: Survival, Extinction, and Conservation in a Desert World
Christopher Norment
Explores the existence of rare, unexpected, and sublime desert creatures such as the black toad and four pupfishes unique to the desert West. All are anomalies: amphibians and fish, dependent upon aquatic habitats, yet living in one of the driest places on earth, where precipitation averages less than four inches per year.
