About this Item
First Edition. Original green and white pictorial stapled card wrappers (staple-bound pamphlet). Octavo. Unpaginated [approx. 16?24 pp.]. Illustrated throughout with diagrams, ecological sketches, charts, and maps detailing marsh biology and estuarine zones. Printed on recycled stock.
A Near Fine copy: binding staples remain firm, tight, and completely rust-free. The wraps show faint price-sticker ghost residue at the upper right corner of the front cover, minor edge rubbing, and light handling wear along the spine fold. The interior is clean, crisp, and unmarked throughout, free of former owner names, marginalia, or dampstains.
Published as Informational Bulletin No. 6 by the Association for the Preservation of Cape Cod, this focused monograph details the ecology, tidal dynamics, flora, fauna, and preservation imperative of Cape Cod?s coastal salt marshes. Explores detritus food webs, nursery grounds for shellfish and commercial fish, shoreline erosion control, and the threats posed by development, dredging, and pollution. An increasingly scarce piece of early Cape Cod environmental conservation ephemera.
