“A newly published coffee-table-sized book of uncommon beauty is, in its conception, much more than a fabulous collection of dramatic nature scenery. With striking photographs by Marin County photojournalist and rock climber James Martin — who conceved and produced the book with the help of Petaluma native and fellow rock climber/photographer Michael Lee — their collaborative effort aims to capture the wildness of the island habitats in the hope of boosting environmental awareness of San Francisco Bay’s unique island ecology.”
