At a time when one-third of species are at heightened risk of extinction, we can each help recover wildlife by restoring native habitat where we live, work, and play — and absolutely no one does it better than Susan Gottlieb. Scott Logan’s gorgeous photographs of The Gottlieb Native Garden capture the majestic beauty and vast array of wildlife that live among us in our urban gardens, while inspiring us to do more to ensure that wildlife and humans can co-exist in our rapidly changing world.

For over five years Scott devoted himself to documenting and photographing the wildlife in Susan and Dan Gottlieb’s renowned Los Angeles garden. The Gottlieb Native Garden: an intimate wildlife journey reveals the astonishing range of biodiversity that’s capable of thriving in our backyards when the right plants and habitat are established.

Scott's photography and Jacob Lang’s text distill the experience into an intimate and moving close-up view of the wildlife residing in our city, and captures the complexity — and interconnectedness — of nature.

Intended for wildlife lovers and native gardeners alike, this beautiful coffee table book invites the viewer to marvel at the phenomenal nature of our nonhuman neighbors and reconsider our connections to these miraculous creatures with whom we share our home.
