Just 150 years after the first Euro-American settlers moved into the region now known as the St. Croix River Valley and Anoka Sandplain, only small fragments of the native landscape remain. For example, only about 6 percent of the forests present 150 years ago are left, a mere 1 percent of the prairies remain. Minnesota's St. Croix River Valley and Anoka Sandplain offers a fascinating landscape history of this region in east-central Minnesota. the authors provide detailed accounts of the 39 varieties of native habitats that still exist in the Region, supplying descriptive text, photographs, line drawings, distribution maps, and lists of associated plants and animals for each habitat. they include directions to and interpretations of 35 sites accessible to the public where these native habitats can be explored firsthand. No other book gives such a thorough and integrated treatment of the natural history of the area.
