5.0 out of 5 stars Superb - a must-have, 24 May 2008
This book is a model for identification guides. Older guides often fail to give an overall impression of a plant's habit, showing only a flower head that looks confusingly like many other flowers. One is often left not knowing which "dandelion-like" plant one is looking at. Instead of one image per plant, this book has up to half a dozen, showing the whole plant, conveying overall shape and size as well as any other details significant for identification: flowers, stamens, fruit, upper and lower leaves, bracts, petals, sepals, stems etc, not only making individual identification easy but also developing a sense for the shared characteristics of flower families. The photographs are wonderfully detailed and clear.

This book is recommended. It is a must-have, for anyone interested in flowers.

Images on the DK website give a "look inside".

This book is exactly the same as the Eyewitness Handbook Wildflowers of Britain and Northwest Europe (a reprint under a slight change of name). It has 320 pages NOT 160 and illustrates over 500 species.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wild Flowers of Britain and Northwest Europe, 21 Oct 2003
As with all Dorling Kindersley books this is a most excellent reference guide for identifying wild plants and flowers.
It is very well laid out, and the photographs are out of this world. I was able to make positive identifications every time, and as the plants are for my rabbits to eat this positive indentification is imperative.
