Wadi El Gemal National Park is introduced as one of Egypt's main ecotourist attractions along the Red Sea coast. In surveying WGNP's water basins, park ranger Mahmound recorded the location of
plant specimens and plant communities at each Global Positioning System (GPS) point and talked with the local desert dwellers about their relationship with the plants. The volume includes maps
of the park, color photographs, a plant directory, glossary, list of plants by Latin and local name, and list of plant families and species identified to date in the park. Annotation 穢2011 Book
