5.0 out of 5 stars
Awesome weed book!,
By J. Mallory (Baltimore, MD USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Weeds of the Northeast (Comstock books) (Paperback)
This is one of the best weed books I have come across. It has very clear descriptive text and the photos are all clear and crisp. But what really thrilled me is that in addition to this the authors have included photos of seedlings and seeds of each species! Who hasn't been out in the field only to be stumped on a plant's identification because the plant is only in the seedling stage? Me, for one... lots of times. The book even has a section on common weed tree seedlings. Wow! I would recommend this book to any professional or amatuer botanist. I hope to see more from these authors.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent information for amateurs and even children.,
By mcdowell@massed.net (Randolph, Mass. USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Weeds of the Northeast (Comstock books) (Paperback)
When I first saw this book at a workshop which was given by the Children's Museum of Boston this summer,I knew I had to have it. Weeeds are no longer nameless. Every type of weed I have seen so far I can identify using this book. The illustrations are real photographs and not drawings so what you see is the real thing.I keep the book in my car so when I go to my friend's house I can show off my knowledge of weeds :). The Title usually gets raised eyebrows.But when I show it to people their reaction change. Even my children ages 10 and 11 use it . The only drawback is that if you don't know the name of the weed you will have to flip through the whole book.But then I don't know how I could have organized it any better if I had written it myself. Excellent book anyway.

5.0 out of 5 stars
An invaluable resource for "weeds" (which are often beautiful plants),
By A Customer
This review is from: Weeds of the Northeast (Comstock books) (Paperback)
This book is an invaluable guide for amateurs who want to know "what that thing growing over there" is. I just bought some land that is covered with a mysterious, bamboo-like, nearly impassable stand of Mystery Plant. With this book in hand, within minutes I identified it as Japanese Knotweed. The only reason why I didn't give the book (which began as Uva's doctoral dissertation) a perfect "10" is this: the organization lacks convenience. Each plant is shown on two pages; the left is a neat, detailed description of the plant, the right is several photos of it. To find a plant, you must flip through every page (it's arranged by monocot and dicot, but if you don't know into which category the plant falls, you're a little lost).
