Reviews
The perfect gift for those of us who want to learn about and admire peculiar creatures like the Hogchoker sole and the Tadpole madtom in brilliant color photographs in the privacy of our home rather than by swimming about in dark watery caves highly hostile to human visitation. It would be a good present for real cave divers, too, or even top swimmers who want to know where the good springs are and what's in them. - Tallahassee Democrat A delight to those who have seen these marvels for themselves, and to those who never will. - Florida Wildlife A perceptive and beautifully illustrated treatment of Florida's most spectacular natural asset. - Dr. Archie Carr, University of Florida

Author Information
Doug Stamm, author and photographer, has ventured, camera in hand, to the depths of lakes and oceans, joined Jacques Cousteau’s team beneath winter ice in the Mississippi River, and traveled to the rain forests of the Amazon headwaters. His photographs have illustrated many articles and books. As a diver/biologist at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, Stamm wrote and photographed his first book, Underwater: The Northern Lakes. His stock photo agency stammphoto.com specializes in underwater natural history and freshwater sportfishing photography. The Springs of Florida is the result of Stamm’s most ambitious effort, a 15-year project to photograph America’s most fascinating freshwater environment. He lives with his wife Lucy in Naples, Florida, and together they are regular visitors to the springs.
