A detailed photographic excursion in Torrey Pines State Natural Reserve, often depicting scenes that are inaccessible to park visitors. Bill Evarts spent seven years creating a collection of images, almost all of them free of the hand of man, that depict this scenic enclave.

A superb text serves as an essential introduction to the park’s natural history, as well as the preservation efforts by San Diegans that saved it from various depredations. “Landscape and Legacy” is equally at home as a “coffee table” treasure as well as being a valuable addition to the library of every outdoor aficionado.
