Wild Flora of the Northeast
Author(s): Barbour, A.; S. Barbour
Year: 1995
Publisher: New York: Overlook Press
ISBN: 0879515848
Subject: Plant Identification, Natural History Comments: From Amazon.com The premise is a good one. Your back yard is full of natural beauty, so you needn't fly off to Africa to find it. The Barbours explore their own Northeast backyard, with wonderful results. The writing dotes lovingly and knowledgeably on conifers, valley hardwoods and mushrooms, while the pictures are spectacular. No matter where you live, it's worth heading out to the Northeastern states, book in hand, to see the honeysuckle berry, the tuliptree and bloodroot, or else just sit with your feet up and see them through Anita's and Spider's eyes.
