DYKMAN, Sara
Bicycling with Butterflies
Portland, (Timber Press), (2021). An impressive journey of 10,000+ miles by bicycle, from Mexico to Canada and back, following the monarch butterfly migration from March to November, 2017. Signed by the author on a publisher's bookplate and including a signed watercolor print by the author depicting her on her journey: Dykman packed a watercolor set on her bike along with her essential gear, and she gave out watercolors to those who aided her along the way. The 8-1/2" x 5-1/2" print is fine; the book is fine in a fine dust jacket. Although monarchs have established themselves elsewhere, their migration is imperiled by habitat destruction, a threat Dykman refers to as "the extinction of a phenomenon."
