The newest Golden Nature Guide, published on February 7, covers the algae, fungi, lichens, mosses, liverworts, ferns, cycads, and conifers. The little pocket guide to these poorly understood plants gives specific information on their morphology and distribution, with suggestions on how to study, preserve, and identify them. Hundreds of pictures in full color illustrate the more common, typical, and interesting on these non-flowering plants. There is also an index and a reference bibliography. Both common and scientific names are provided.
