This book of wildflowers covers 700 species‎.‎ The photographs demonstrate the most important points to look at when identifying a plant and there are two identification keys to take the user to the page or plant group in which his specimen will be found ‎- one using easily recognised characteristics like colour‎,‎ petal numbers and halfshape‎,‎ the other using a more strictly scientific approach for those wishing to use the book as a stepping‎-stone to a complete treatise‎.‎ The authors have wide experience of the subject and have both written many books‎.‎ Andrew Gagg is a TV designer and has photographed flowers for over 20 years‎.‎
