Editorial Reviews:

Book Description
A comprehensive, accurate, full-color field guide for anyone who loves Rocky Mountain wildflowers • Complete, concise and easy to use • Authoritative authorship that sets a higher standard for flora field guides • Integrated Life List for the serious wildflower enthusiast "What is that wildflower called?"

It's a question that every one of us who has hiked, run, or climbed in the Rockies has asked at least 100 times. Rocky Mountain Flora is the result of a lifetime spent tramping through the mountains asking exactly that same question. And the truly unique feature of this book is the hiker was horticulture professor.

Organized by color, Rocky Mountain Flora has all the features of competing titles such as images of each flower, taxonomy, and detailed descriptions. But the unique features of this field guide include a Life List for the serious wildflower enthusiast, the specific location, elevation, and time of year that the flower was found and a special feature called "LOOK FOR" that helps with quick identifications.

This guide is very easy to use in the field. It is a soft cover, half page size so it stows easily in my pack. Flowers are categorized by color and easy to look up. It has additional sections on mosses, mushrooms, grasses, etc. A very user friendly guide.
