Review "The second volume of this flora represents a monumental achievement....This volume does everything that a flora should - and more; a high quality of scholarship is evident throughout....Even more important is the degree to which recent systematic investigations are reflected in the treatments....This volume has set a high standard; it will serve as an excellent model for later volumes....The real 'review' of a flora comes in putting it to use, and I am looking forward to using this one! I recommend it whole-heartedly." --Walter S. Jedd, Economic Botany, published by The Society for Economic Botany by The New York Botanical Garden"I recommend this volume of the Flora to all interested parties." --Michael T. Stieber, The Morton Arboretum. Lisle, IL, Science Books and Films"Volume 2 of The Flora of North America is the first to provide a floristic treatment, here including ferns and fern allies, as well as the gymnosperms....For the quality of the information, and the quality of the book itself - paper, binding, feel in the hands - the asking price is a small amount to pay for this major publishing event."--Botanical and Herb Reviews"No botanical library will be complete without the Flora of North America, and I eagerly await the appearance of future volumes."--Madroño"An essential reference for botanists, professional or amateur, naturalists and anyone with a very serious interest in North American plants. Most highly recommended."--Wildlife Activist Read more About the Author The Editorial Committee of the Flora of North America (FNA) is responsible for the authoritative, multivolume work describing the native plants of North America.
