These enormously popular volumes are the most engrossing and encyclopedic guides available.

I just love this book and its companion, Up North. Hardly a weekend goes by at our cottage without someone observing some animal or plant or aspect of the weather and asking, "What does it say about it in Up North?" Looking things up in Up North is a favourite activity. If you don't know them already, do yourself a favour and check them out. You'll need both volumes. I wouldn't be without mine. Field guides are essential too, but the Up North books offer so much more information.
This book is an excellent guide to the flora and fauna of Northern Ontario. It includes interesting facts on animals and plants that will leave you saying, "Wow!". I highly recommend this book because it will open your eyes to a whole new world.
