Excerpt from History of the Discovery and Conquest of Costa Rica Into this maze Of documentation Sefior Fer nandez Guardia has frequently ventured on the occasions of his Visits to Spain, and with notable success. He has made himself familiar with the contents of many a long-hidden bundle, and has brought to light in the present volume an array Of facts and an ensemble Of personalities which merited a much earlier presentation to the world. From the same source his father before him, Don Leen Fernandez, the grand Old man Of Costa Rican letters, and the brilliant diplomatist, Don Manuel M. De Peralta, have culled the great collections of documents published under their names, and, parenthetically, it is gratifying to learn that the King, Don Alfonso XIII., Whose liberal and progressive tendencies are well known, shows a lively interest in bringing to a conclusion the task, undertaken some years ago, Of unearthing and systematizing these early rec ords - a task in which Spain is collaborating with the spanish-american republics.

In the more than thirty years since the publication of Daniel H. Janzen’s classic Costa Rican Natural History, research in this small but astonishingly biodiverse, well-preserved, and well-studied Latin American nation has evolved from a species-level approach to the study of entire ecosystems. And from the lowland dry forests of Guanacaste to the montane cloud forests of Monteverde, from the seasonal forests of the Central Valley to the coastal species assemblages of Tortuguero, Costa Rica has proven to be as richly diverse in ecosystems as it is in species. In Costa Rican Ecosystems, Maarten Kappelle brings together a collection of the world’s foremost experts on Costa Rican ecology—outstanding scientists such as Daniel H. Janzen, Jorge Cortés, Jorge A. Jiménez, Sally P. Horn, Robert O. Lawton, Quírico Jiménez M., Carlos Manuel Rodríguez, Catherine M. Pringle, and Eduardo Carrillo J., among others—to offer the first comprehensive account of the diversity, structure, function, uses, and conservation of Costa Rica’s ecosystems. Featuring a foreword and introductory remarks by two renowned leaders in biodiversity science and ecological conservation, Thomas E. Lovejoy and Rodrigo Gámez Lobo, in addition to chapters highlighting the geology, soils, and climate of Costa Rica, as well as the ecosystems of its terrestrial, freshwater, and marine habitats, and including previously unpublished information on Isla del Coco, this beautiful color-illustrated book will be an essential reference for academic scientists, students, natural history guides, conservationists, educators, park guards, and visitors alike.

Excerpt from Costa Rica and Her Future It is now, especially, when the hour has come for crowded European and American cities to over ow the world and when emigration has become a social necessity, that former prejudices should be dissipated. It is but fulfilling a duty to make known in all justice a country worthy of the atten tion of persons who may seriously consider the matter of seeking a new home for themselves.
