Nature Obscura: A City's Hidden Natural World by Kelly Brenner
3.0
The author’s passion for her subjects is obvious from the first paragraph. The thing that makes this a good book is also the thing that makes it difficult to complete. The over abundance of detail. To a striving entomologist, the depth of dragonfly detail is probably wonderful. To anyone else? Maybe not so much so.
This is not a reference book that one would use to look up facts, so in the genre of nature literature, it’s difficult to define this book’s exact niche.
