1.The Botany of Desire: A Plant s-Eye View of the WorldThe Botany of Desire: A Plant's-Eye View of the World
from Random House Trade Paperbacks
Price: $10.20

Customer Review:
The connections between plants and people are fascinating. Michael Pollan writes so well, I was pulled through the book. This is a view of the web of life that I haven't seen before. Highly recommended. Another book I enjoyed some time back (not by Pollan) is "Biomimicry".

from Timber Press, Incorporated
Price: $23.07

Customer Review:
I work as a perennial salesperson in a large, family-owned garden center in the Andersonville neighborhood of Chicago. Any time a customer asks for a book on perennials or gardening in general, I always recommend this one.

from Forager's Harvest Press
Price: $22.95

Customer Review:
While this book doesn't cover a huge variety of wild edidbles the text and pictures on the ones it does cover are very useful. It is obvious that the author has actually collected the plants he is writting about. It is great that he offers new information on many of the plants not just information... more info

from Knopf
Price: $19.95

Customer Review:
This is the companion volume to the western trees edition. Having been able to spend some time on the east coast for the first time since I was a boy, I found I could only identify a handful of species, so I bought this book to see what I could identify, being familiar mostly with the west coast.more info

from Random House Trade Paperbacks
Price: $10.88

Customer Review:
I got this book as a gift and was non-plussed. A whole book about people climbing trees? But once I started I couldn't put it down. Terrific writing, great characters and a really compelling story to tell. It was almost enough to make me want to go climb a tree myself. The only complaint I have is... more info

Customer Review:
This book ranks with such classics of plant indentification as Agnes Chase's A First Book of Grasses, or Donald Culross Peattie's books on tree indentification.

9.Newcomb s Wildflower GuideNewcomb's Wildflower Guide
from Little, Brown and Company
Price: $13.59

Customer Review:
Although this fieldbook at first seems a first cousin to the Peterson guide it differs in one very significant way -- it has a key which even those who never took (or don't remember) Plant Taxonomy 390 can use without frustration-- what does "hispid" mean anyway? Anyone can key a plant to at least a... more info
