About this Item

*Flowers of the Field* by the Rev. C. A. Johns is one of the classic guides to the wild flowers of Britain and has introduced generations of readers to the study of botany since its first publication in 1851. Written in a clear and engaging style, the book provides detailed descriptions of hundreds of native flowering plants, together with their common and botanical names, habitats, flowering seasons and distinguishing features. Beautifully illustrated with numerous line drawings and, in later editions, coloured plates, it combines scientific accuracy with an accessible approach that made it a standard reference for both amateur naturalists and experienced botanists. An essential addition for readers and collectors of botany, natural history, British wildflowers and classic botanical literature.
