Wildflowers of Monterey County: A Field Companion"Wildflowers of Monterey County represents a breakthrough in how we perceive the natural world of wildflowers. For the botanist, amateur or professional, it asks for a suspension of the clinical eye and in return, offers a seductive peek into a sphere of beauty that is often dissected, part by part. For the novice nature-lover who may not know a Baby Blue-Eyes from an Indian Paint Brush it gently leads them into a realm that sometimes can be intimidating and pedantic, but within these pages is both spectacular and educational."--Amazon. |
