Located along the Georgia-South Carolina border, the MSRB comprises the portion of the Savannah River drainage area located on the Upper Coastal Plain and edges of the Lower Coastal Plain. Until now, no state-focused books existed that were devoted to the freshwater fishes of either Georgia or South Carolina.The book identifies and discusses 100 native and introduced species from 26 fish families—approximately 70% of the native species in the entire Savannah River drainage area. Illustrated in color with photographs and a local distribution map, each species account describes the fish's appearance, meristic features, size, biology, habitat, conservation status, similarities to other species, and geographic range. The book also discusses the Savannah River, tributary streams, reservoirs, and ponds from the 1950s to the present showing ecological changes, detailed habitat descriptions, and associated fish assemblages.Features:Coverage of approximately 7,000 square kilometers of the Savannah River drainage area, including the 780 square kilometer Savannah River SiteDetailed accounts of 96 native and introduced fish speciesMore than 200 color photos illustrating fish species (most live, many shown both with and without spawning colors) and numerous fish habitats94 local species distribution maps and 6 area maps—all in colorTaxonomic identification key illustrated by 180 black and white photosUnique fish community comparisons in highly impacted, disturbed, and undisturbed aquatic habitatsNearly 1,000 bibliographic references

ANGELS MAY NOT CHANGE THE COURSE OF OUR DESTINY...UNLESS THEY FALL IN LOVE BACK. A true to life story of why humans and angels play integral parts in each others lives. Bring two energies together and lavish in their on-page chemistry. In a self-identifying world, we can not see how the inter-dimensional entities see us and feel us and know us, if at all. We do not stop to think how we have far-reaching impact into nether and upper worlds. We are oblivious to the flow of effect across unknown spaces, until something catches our eye and then grabs our imagination, normally it comes in the guise of an attractive energy, a glow, a light, a woman. We don't stop to ask every bright star around us if it is an angel. Until we delve in closer and begin to acquaint ourselves with the beauty before us...and then suddenly we see the pureness, the grace, the richness, the depth of infinity that is there.
