"Maria Dolan and Kathryn True's Nature in the City: Seattle is a treasure map to Seattle's wild and not so wild places. And like a treasure map, it entices you to find the riches of the city. It is a book you will take on kayak tours, walking rambles, bike rides and even up the Space Needle. It is a book that will give you a fresh perspective on Seattle." (The Seattle Times)
