This review is from: Lichens of California (California Natural History Guides) (Hardcover)
Older is sometimes better..I find the lichen keys in this "older" book by Hale and Cole much easier to use than most of the others...and it's easier to carry around. I'm glad there are some used copies still available since the book is out of print. I bought this copy as a birthday present for my son who is also interested in lichens.

This review is from: Lichens of California (California Natural History Guides) (Paperback)
Even though this book is a bit outdated and the names of lichens have changed since publishing I found it very useful in my field work in a little studied area of NE California. Most of the pictures are black and white, with a few color plates, but that is okay - they are pics of 'real' lichens, not the picture perfect ones shown in other wonderful books. Again the binomials may be out of date, but I still found it useful. I think even a novice would be able to navigate the keys within!
