Incredibly comprehensive. July 7, 1999
This fieldguide covers more topics and includes more photos than you might think. Everything from Astronomy to flora/fauna to geology, etc. Since the descriptions are short, but the photos are plentiful, it is a good book to combine with the Handbook of Nature Study by Anna Botsford Comstock (Cornell Univ. Press). Botsford's book is heavy on the descriptions, but short on photos. With these two books, you have everything you need for a comprehensive course on Natural History.
great introduction to the natural world for everyone June 14, 1998

Imagine my delight in carrying this little book into the woods with my children and being able to share information about so many living things with them. I recommend this book to anyone fascinated by the often overlooked and unappreciated treasures of New England. The photography is great and the comprehensiveness is impressive.
An excellent concise and compact field guide to New England. May 28, 1998

I've been searching for a book like this for the past two years. It contains information on the different types of habitats, birds, insects, reptiles, amphibians, trees, lichen, wildflowers, mammals (...the list goes on) found in the New England area. It even has a collection of star maps for people who are also interested in the New England night sky. The information is well laid out and easy to read and is accompanied by detailed color diagrams and photos. What I like best about this book though is I no longer have to carry around 5 different field guides when I go out hiking now. I only need to carry this one.
