informative slow-paced

4.0

I appreciate the wide ranging topics covered in Legacy : Natural History of Ontario -- whether one's interest is plants, animals, geology, or weather, one will find something of interest.  The short chapters are informative without being dry, and most contain accompanying photos -- the content is valuable and well presented.  My criticisms of this book are only that at this point, some of the language is very dated -- language used to refer to Indigenous peoples ('Indians') and humanity ('man') to name a few -- and some of the photos seem to be of taxidermy rather than living animals.
