I wanted a guide that was not too complicated or assumed some prior knowledge of the subject. it fulfils both these requirements and more. Great photographs of open and closed wings as well as easy-to-use guide to distribution info. Fits well into pocket for field use. A good buy for beginners and easier to use than the Collins Guide. A good buy. Would recommend it unreservedly.

I took this book on a recent trip to the Dordogne and found it very useful. The photographs are excellent and the book is a handy size to take around with you.

I ordered this book for a friend who is a biologist and has an interest in butterflies. The reason i chose this book was because of the positive reviews i read about it and i have to admit when i received it i was not disappointed. The book contains a plethora of maps, images and drawings and a comprehensive amount of information on the various species of butterflies. My friend also told me he was very happy with the book and the info it contained. I would definitely recommend this book to people that want to get to know more about butterflies.
