The book, Natural History of the Anza-Borrego Region: Then and Now, evolved from a course taught at University of San Diego for 16 years by authors Mike Wells and Marie Simovich. They tell how the landscape and features of a desert evolved over time. The result, an amazing biological diversity that also includes the first human inhabitants of the area! Presenter Mike Wells, a PhD in physical geography, had a 34-year career with CA State Parks from his first assignment in Anza-Borrego to district superintendent of the Colorado Desert District. He was a lecturer for the Depart.of Biology, at USD, from 2001–2017.
