Book
Delta : a prairie marsh and its people / written by: Glen Suggett, Gordon Goldsborough, Robert Jones, Winnie Pauch, Heidi den Haan, Leo Pettipas, Shirley Christianson, Barry Bills and Cynthia Jordan.
"'Delta: a prairie marsh and its people' is about all the people who have spent time at time, whether to hunt waterfowl, relax on the beach, catch fish, conduct research, or seek artistic inspiration. It is also about the causes of the gradual deterioration of this once world-class wetland, and how a group of scientists from Ducks Unlimited Canada, the University of Manitoba, and Manitoba Conservation and Water Stewardship are working to bring it back to its former glory." -- Provided by the Publisher.
