EASTERN REGION <BR>This fully revised edition brings a new level of beauty, accuracy, and usefulness to the field guide that wildflower enthusiasts have relied upon for more than 20 years. <BR>More than 940 all-new, full-color images show the wildflowers of western North America close-up and in their natural habitats.
