5.0 out of 5 stars A good book for people interested in plants and science..., November 2, 1999
By A Customer
This book tells how to collect, prepare, and mount plants of all types, including seaweed and mushrooms. It tells exactly what to do in a clear manner. It also tells when you shouldn't collect plants. I highly recommend this book. A good book to go with it is "Building Your Own Nature Museum" by Vinson Brown...

5.0 out of 5 stars Collecting and Preserving Plants, February 21, 2002
By Anne M. Post (Harrison Twp, MI USA) - See all my reviews
An excellent book for anyone interested in the science of preserving plant material. This book explains how to collect, prepare, and mount plants of all types, including moss, lichens, seaweed and mushrooms. The author explains exactly what to do and how to do it in a clear, concise manner. 184 pages, paperback.
I very highly recommend this book.
