Book
Description
"Alpine
Wildflowers", the third in a three-book series on
wildflowers of the northern Rocky Mountains, is an invaluable
and convenient pocket guide for hikers, travelers, and
all amateur botanists, as well as teachers, range managers,
and other experts. This book groups, pictures, and describes
each wildflower according to family. Technical terminology
has been kept to a minimum, and line drawings, a picture
glossary, and a glossary of botanical terms help identify
species quickly and accurately. The first book in the
series, "Prairie Wildflowers" covers open-terrain
wildflowers. The second book, "Forest Wildflowers" concentrates
on wildflowers of the forest environment. This book covers
high-altitude wildflowers. For any nature-lover who has
asked, "What flower is that?" Alpine Wildflowers
holds the answer.
