Field Flora of the British Isles provides a portable, comprehensive guide for those wishing to identify plants growing in the wild in the British Isles. Based on the author's now standard work New Flora of the British Isles, this abridged version offers the same complete coverage and features in a compact format that is particularly suitable for use in the field. Additional information on growth habit, habitat and distribution is provided as each taxon is identified. Twenty-seven pages of essential illustrations are included to aid the user, together with a comprehensive glossary and a concise index.
