When professional photographer and former park ranger Michael Gadomski, of Sterling, teamed up with writer and environmental consultant Richard Whiteford, of Downingtown, magic was made. They have created a fantastic book that features some of the most incredible photographs of the nature that surrounds us within this state, while at the same time giving you an overview of each of the region's natural history."
