"This volume spotlights some of the finest imagery of its kind. It features 120 plates by Mary E. Eaton, who was a staff illustrator of the New York Botanical Garden from 1911 to 1932. Also included are 8 illustrations by botanical illustrator E. J. Geske. The first-rate botanical illustrations remain fresh and attractive to the modern eye"--

This is an innovative and remarkably user-friendly guide to the identification of the flowers of Britain and northwestern Europe. By organising the species by their colour group first (and by family within that colour group), this guide enables those less familiar with flower taxonomy to quickly and easily find what they are looking for - a great improvement on the often-frustrating business of trawling through a conventionally-organised guide. The lovely artwork by acclaimed illustrator Marjorie Blamey, with a neat, focused and simple text, makes this book a joy to use.
