 What a great gift!! January 17, 2007

We happen to be active in Boy Scouts in our area so whenever a young man gets his Eagle Badge we make sure he gets a copy of this book from our family. It is a great book for young and old alike who travel or live in the Pacific Northwest
Perfect! May 12, 2008
Thomas Vaughan (Seattle, WA USA)
I was looking for a small but comprehensive book to help me identify plants and animals in the Pacific Northwest. This book has been an excellent choice!
Topics are well-organized so you can quickly find what you're looking for. Plant and animal drawings are well done, and I've never had problems identifying what I've just stumbled across on the trail. The book is durable so I can take it hiking without worry.
Descriptions of everything are a bit spartan, but that's fine: it keeps the book small. There is enough information to positively identify things, and then I can do more research once I get home if I need to.

This book is designed to cover the most commonly encountered species of plants and animals in the Cascade and Olympic Mountains, but it also will be very useful in the lowlands and coast ranges as well. The second edition has been considerably upgraded and the art is now all in color. If you are looking for ONE book to cover plants, mushrooms, butterflies, insects, amphibians and reptiles, mammals and birds and you want the most commonly seen ones selected out for you, then this book will serve you well. I encourage readers to review the introductory material on communities to familiarize yourself with the habitats and concepts that will guide you to use this book to its fullest. I welcome comments about this book, you can email me at floriferous@msn.com

I bought this for my 7 year old CubScout for camp. On our nature hike, the camp staff referred to it repeatedly to answer the groups questions. We ended up donating it to the camp at the end of the week and buying another copy for ourselves. The pictures are large and detailed, very easy to use.
