Throughout history, swamps have been idealized and demonized, purged and protected. Today, they are simultaneously considered metaphorical places of evil, pestilence, and death, and treasured as diverse biological ecosystems teeming with life. Covering not only swamps and bogs but also marshes and wetlands, Swamp ventures into the cultural and ecological histories of these mysterious, mythologized, and misunderstood landscapes. Anthony Wilson takes readers into swamps across the globe, from the freshwater marshes of Botswana’s tremendous Okavango delta, to the notable swamps between the Tigris and Euphrates rivers, to the peat bogs in Russia, the British Isles, and Scandinavia, which have been used as energy sources for centuries. It explores ideas and representations of wetlands across centuries, cultures, and continents, considering legend and folklore, mythology, literature, film, and natural and cultural history. As it plumbs the murky depths of swamps from the distant past to an uncertain future, Swamps provides an engaging, accessible, informative, and lavishly illustrated journey into these fascinating landscapes.

In a world filled with breathtaking beauty, we have often overlooked the elusive magic of certain landscapes. A cloudy river flows into an Arctic wetland where sandhill cranes and muskoxen dwell. Further south, cypress branches hang low over dismal swamps. Places like these-collectively known as swamplands or peatlands-often go unnoticed for their ecological splendor. They are as globally significant as rainforests, yet, because of their reputation as wastelands, they are being systematically drained and degraded. Swamplands celebrates these wild places, as journalist Edward Struzik highlights the unappreciated struggle to save peatlands by scientists, conservationists, and landowners around the world. An ode to peaty landscapes in all their offbeat glory, the book is also a demand for awareness of the myriad threats they face. It inspires us to see the beauty and importance in these least likely of places. Our planet's survival might depend on it.

Award-winning naturalist Jim Arnosky and his wife, Deanna, are your guides in this fascinating-and thrilling-expedition to nine swamps, bogs, marshes and wet prairies. Feel the hair stand up on the back of your neck as you find yourself inches away from venomous snakes, or alone in a bog with an enormous bear. Admire the beauty of Victory, Vermont, where moose, beaver, and Rainbow Trout all make their home. Experience the dramatic cycle of life and death in a single day in the Everglades, where even the huge alligators finally become food for hungry vultures. And admire the delicate beauty of the Orb Weaver Spider's oval web in a Georgia marsh, glistening with tiny droplets of dew, each drop acting as a prism and breaking the light into tiny rainbows. Jim's luminous watercolors and pencil drawings bring these remote environments to life as we share his wonder at "a swamp's deep and ancient sense of mystery."
