Amida and Mark Johns This little book is an introduction to the reserve through a series of beautifully shot images accompanied by brief descriptions. It is an album of a scenic fynbos wonderland just 40km east of Cape Town, which is at the core of the reserve. This mountainous and coastal core is buffered by farmland, recreational resorts and major wetland systems that lie within the reserve's 100 000 hectare expanse. For the many who visit, live and make their living in the Kogelberg reserve, play in it, draw water from it and eat of its fruits, this book is a precious reminder of the beauty of the natural environment and the urgent need to sustain it. About the Authors As residents and part of the management of the Kogelberg Biosphere Reserve, Mark and Amida Johns have come to know well its landscape, the needs of its ecosystem and the many special plant species in the area. Mark Johns has been reserve manager of the Kogelberg Nature Reserve since 1989. His wife, Amida, is a keen amateur photographer. |
