Forests, Wetlands and Flamescapes: Wildlands of the Dayton, Ohio Region in 1800... and Today

This book describes vegetation of the Miami Valley of Ohio as it was in 1800, and also describes the best remaining remnants of these plant communities that still exist on public lands.  The book describes how geology, climate, and American Indians (mainly through their extensive use of fire) shaped the natural landscapes of the region.  This book is available on Amazon here:
