5.0 out of 5 stars Detailed and easy to follow, 15 Jul 2008
By E. Shaw "junglegirl" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I bought this book having already owned the Collins Complete British Wildlife Photoguide and finding I needed something more comprehensive. I was not disappointed - the book is well laid out with clear photos and plants grouped together by family. There is also a glossary and brief but clear guides to leaves, fruits and seeds and an flower identification guide. Using photographs rather than drawings also helps with identification.

A very clear and easy-to-use guide that should be perfect for anyone like me who is not an expert in botany but wants a detailed guide that makes identification simple and easy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Really Good Book, 11 April 2008
By A. G. Beer "A Good Beer" (UK, Devon-Cornwall) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Im a student studying conservation biology. This books perfect, not to big and can easily be taken out in the field. Great photos and backed up by good descriptive texts and the occasional handy identification drawings of leaves and stems etc for those more difficult plants. This book wont be a dissapointment

4.0 out of 5 stars A really useful book, easy to use., 13 Aug 2009
By Mrs. D. Belcher "flowerfairy" (Stratford upon Avon, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I started looking at wild flowers on walks with our dog, and realised I didn't know the names of too many. I bought this book after reading reviews and it has been such a help. In fact, when I'm out for a walk, I'm always looking for new wild flowers, and they're so easy to find from the colour pictures and details in the book.
