Description
Book SynopsisTrade Review“Johnsgard’s book is not a travel guide. It is the first comprehensive look at the geological, paleontological and natural history of the river valley, a reference book for people who want to know how the valley came into being and what makes it such a rare and beautiful place.”—Algis J. Laukaitis,
Lincoln Journal Star“Paul Johnsgard’s
The Niobrara is one of the very best books—if not the very best—he has written. . . . [It] displays the variety of Johnsgard’s talents. It combines graceful readability with his own sketches in a book overflowing with the evolutionary history of the remarkable Niobrara Valley.”—Harold Andersen,
Omaha World-Herald“Johnsgard's book is the ultimate reference guide for an amateur natural scholar. . . .
The Niobrara is perfectly suited as a source for research projects in high school, beginning college students, and those with a long-established, deep interest in the river.”—
Nebraska Life“This is a natural history of Nebraska’s most beautiful river, by a master biologist who is very familiar with the scientific literature of the Niobrara and its valley and watershed.”—Francis Moul,
Lincoln Journal Star
