In this stunning book, nature photographer and ecologist David
Blevins offers an inspiring visual journey to North Carolina's
barrier islands as you have never seen them before. These islands
are unique and ever-changing places with epic origins, surprising
plants and animals, and an uncertain future. From snow geese
midflight to breathtaking vistas along otherworldly dunes, Blevins
has captured the incredible natural diversity of North Carolina's
coast in singular detail. His photographs and words reveal the
natural character of these islands, the forces that shape them, and
the sense of wonder they inspire.
Featuring over 150 full-color images from Currituck Banks, the Cape
Hatteras and Cape Lookout National Seashores, and the islands of
the southern coast,
North Carolina's Barrier Islands is not
only a collection of beautiful images of landscapes, plants, and
animals but also an appeal for their conservation.
