Beautiful Home (English Edition): China‘s Land, Wildlife & Plants Through Maps – China on the Map Series

From the Four Plateaus and Great Basins to Giant Pandas, Snow Leopards, Crested Ibises, Metasequoia and Ginseng — A Visual Journey Through China‘s Geography and Biodiversity
This is not a travel guide, and it is not an academic geography textbook. It is a map-driven tour of China‘s natural world, in three parts: the land itself—its plateaus, basins, plains, rivers, and seas; the animals that live there, from giant pandas and snow leopards to crested ibises and Yangtze finless porpoises; and the plants that share the same mountains and valleys, from ginkgo and metasequoia to ginseng and snow lotuses. The maps and photographs carry the story, and the text is written in plain, readable English for general readers. If you want to see China’s geography and biodiversity as something connected—land, animals, and plants together—rather than read a species checklist or a dense academic survey—this is it.
