Quick! But accurate?, Dec 21 2001
This review is from: Field Guide to the Grasses, Sedges, and Rushes of the Northern United States (Paperback)
This book travels well and with the index dog-eared makes for quick and dirty referencing (espeically of Fam Graminae).
But I found a few of the plates, although well illustrated, confusing (i.e. determining the key number associated with the image of a particular flowering head). If you are looking for a thorough reference for Genus Carex don't look here.

An Excellent Field Resource, Jun 24 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Field Guide to the Grasses, Sedges, and Rushes of the Northern United States (Paperback)
For a small, compact field guide it holds a wealth of information including a dichotomous like key for easy identification. Common names as well as scientific names are provided with good illustrations. For anyone serious about field work or just someone interested in plants this book is a good resource.
