For the Love of Wild Places explores the most remote
habitats on the planet. From the intimate view of a
cheetah's care of her six cubs in Africa to a carpet of
Emperor Penguins in Antarctica to a robotic landing of
25,000 turtles on an isolated Costa Rica beach, this
personal narrative captures the wonder, beauty, and
fragility of vanishing wild places. During four decades,
Greg and Mary Beth Dimijian ventured into the back country
of Earth by land, sea, and air to photograph and savor the
adventures shared in this book. From the searing heat inside
a volcano in Hawaii to the grandeur of the continental
divide in Glacier National Park and the mystery of a coral
reef during a night dive, their stories reflect a love of
learning about fascinating inhabitants of the planet and a
passion for adventure. For the Love of Wild Places inspires
readers with a renewed motivation for exploring and saving
the remaining wonders of Planet Earth. Photographs lure
readers to sights and scenes that echo a resounding message:
If you treasure wild places, go now before they disappear.
