The Audubon Society Field Guide to North American Wildflowers, Eastern Region, written by William Niering and Nancy Olmstead, is an 887 page, 4 X 7 1/2 inch softcover book published by Alfred A. Knopf, New York. The copyright date is 1979, and this is the fourth printing (June, 1983) of this edition.

Synopsis - This detailed and comprehensive guide to the wildflowers of Eastern North America features detailed descriptions of more than 600 species of flowers, grasses, sedges, flowering vines and shrubs found on roadsides and in forests, meadows, wetlands and back yards. 700 full color photographs, organized by flower color and shape, show the details of each flower, and the accompanying individual descriptions provide information on similar species, range, habitat, and more. A lengthy introduction provides instructions about using the guide, wildflower identification, flower parts, etc.

Condition Details - The book is in very good condition: it has a square spine, a tight binding, and no marks, tears, turned down page corners, or writing. The inside covers and endpapers are lightly toned/yellowed. The flexible plastic cover has a mild curl, but no edgewear or soil. The textblock edges are clean save for one small spot on the foredge. The glossy band dustjacket has rubwear, no tears.

I never use stock photos. The item pictured is the item you'll receive, and it will be packed with care regardless of the shipping method.
