Book Reviews of Newcomb's Wildflower Guide

Book Review: Fairly easy to use
Summary: 4 Stars

This is my first guide to wildflowers, and since I've picked it up I find it is a practical guide for looking at the specific flower. I am a beginner, but I can tell you that the illustrations are a big help and the three key system seems to make more sense for identification than starting with flower color. I have only taken this book out a couple of times on my bike rides, but I look forward to more extensive use with guides and by myself on hikes in the near future.

Summary of Newcomb's Wildflower Guide

An ingenious new key system for quick, positive field identification of wildflowers, flowering shrubs and vines in paperback for the first time. 1,075 drawings, 175 in color.
