After a thirty-year career as a biology professor at Victoria College, WAYNE H. McALISTER became an environmental education specialist for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. Stationed on Matagorda Island, he developed and presented programs on barrier island ecology for ten years before retiring to his home on the Guadalupe River. He is the author or coauthor of three books, including Life on Matagorda Island published by Texas A&M University Press.
"McAlister's is one of the finest books of nature writing I have ever had the privilege to read, certainly one of the best about Texas, ranking with the published works of top writers like Roy Bedicheck, John Graves, and Stephen Harrigan, with all of whom McAlister shares a love of his native land matched by a deep knowledge and long experience of its flora and fauna."--M.
