Tinkering with Eden : A Natural History of Exotic Species in America Paperback
by Kim Todd
Paperback
Description
Mosquitoes in Hawaii, sea lampreys in the Great Lakes, mountain goats in the Olympic Mountains of Washington State - not one of these species is native to the environment it now flourishes in.
This is a written history of the introduction of exotic species into the United States, and how the well meaning endeavours of scientists, explorers and biologists have resulted in ecological catastrophe.
