<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>An ingenious key system for quick, positive field identification of wildflowers, flowering shrubs and vines in Northeastern and North-central North America. </b> <p/>Amateur and expert alike can quickly and accurately identify almost any wildflower using Lawrence Newcomb's system, which is based on natural structural features that are easily visible even to the untrained eye. Every time you see an unknown plant, ask yourself the same five questions (related to the type of plant and the structure of its petals and leaves), and you will be directed to the page on which the plant can be found. Beautiful illustrations make confirmation easy.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Anyone who likes wildflowers and is planning a vacation trip to the North Central or Northeastern states will do well to take along this new guide.--<i><b>Dallas Morning News</b></i><br><br>I have tried Newcomb's key on flowers I know, and have been delighted by the ease with which they can be identified.
