The Life of Isle Royale. Natural History Handbook (unnumbered)

Shelton N. 1975. The Life of Isle Royale. Natural History Handbook (unnumbered). National Park Service. Washington, DC

This publication is one of a series of handbooks explaining the natural history of scenic and scientific areas in the National Park System. From the publication preface: "This book is a natural history of Isle Royale for the layman. It emphasizes the ecology of the island—that is the relationships among its plants, animals, and physical environment—rather than the characteristics of individual species. The human history has been viewed largely from the standpoint of its impact on the land. The book has been written in a way that we hope will benefit armchair travelers as well as those fortunate persons who actually visit the island."
