Bøker i Temple Big Thicket-serien

Originally published in 1979, this book explores the plant biology, ecology, geology, and environmental regions of the Big Thicket National Preserve. It covers the ecological and geological history of the Big Thicket and introduces its plant life, from longleaf pines and tupelo swamps to savannah wetlands and hardwood flats.

This title presents the stories of people living in the Big Thicket of southeast Texas. Stories concern robbing a bee tree; hunting wild boar; ploughing all day and dancing all night; wading five miles to church through a cypress brake; and making soap using hickory ashes.
