Welcome to Jill's Top Nature Books and Other Goodies
I've always considered myself an animal-lover, but it has only been recently that I've realized the crucial importance of conserving wildlife habitats and natural resources to make this a better planet.
And the conclusion that I've come to is that if you value nature, you've got to be ready to fight for her. Hence the environmental emphasis within my list of top 10 nature books!
