About the Book

A richly illustrated resource on the natural history of freshwater streams, small rivers, and their associated habitats

This authoritative guide to streams and smaller rivers is packed with original photos, drawings, and graphics. It contains inventories of many of the most common plants and animals thriving in and along these overlooked waterways—the Blue Dasher Dragonfly, the Red-Shouldered Hawk, the Greenside Darter, and the Cardinal Flower, just for starters.

Lynch explains the geology and evolution of streams, including coastline tidal streams and the unusual southeastern “blackwater” rivers and karst streams of Florida. He outlines why understanding streams, rivers, and riverine systems is crucial to science and conservation, particularly as climate change continues to shape our environment.

This concise, indispensable guide is a perfect companion for hikers, anglers, birders, and boaters, as well as students and educators.

Review :
“Patrick Lynch raises the bar for what a field guide can be. Despite the compact size, Streams is also a beautifully written primer on stream science—a remarkable achievement.”—David Skelly, Frank R. Oastler Professor of Ecology, Yale University, and director, Yale Peabody Museum of Natural History

“Pat has always been a master of visual communication, packing authoritative information into a book that still slips easily into a coat pocket. The graphics in this volume are not just beautiful—they’re incredibly effective at breaking down intricate processes and relationships.”—Twan Leenders, director of conservation, Chautauqua Watershed Conservancy

“Patrick Lynch’s wondrous book Streams: An Illustrated Guide will open your eyes to the fascinating dynamics of flowing waters and all the life that is nurtured by and in them: fish, eels, insects, frogs, plants, and much more!”—James Prosek, artist and author of Eels: An Exploration, from New Zealand to the Sargasso, of the World’s Most Mysterious Fish
