Strengths:
Useful beginners guide as it features actual photos instead of drawings
Weaknesses:
This book has been a great beginners guide for me and was well worth the money, especially as it has a colour key which makes flowering plants easier to find whilest in the field. I have now decided I need a book that covers a broader range as I plan to do a bit of wildflower "twitching" whilest on holiday.
