Rezensionen
Wildflowers, mushrooms, reptiles & amphibians, fishes, trees, shrubs, cacti, grasses,insects, spiders, butterflies, mammals, and birds ! Easy to use, with almost half of the 500 pages devoted to color plates of the species, and various habitat types in the different deserts of North America.
This is an introductory illustrated field guide the five deserts in the U.S. It describes the natural history of each one, briefly. Only some of the features, plants, and animals mentioned in the summary of each desert are depicted and/or described. It is a good book for those briefly visiting more than one desert; a longer stay in or a more intimate exploration of any one of them would call for a more focused field guide. It is fine for what it is, but nothing special. The index is superficial.
