Summary: An excellent concise and compact field guide to New England.
Comment: I've been searching for a book like this for the past two years. It contains information on the different types of habitats, birds, insects, reptiles, amphibians, trees, lichen, wildflowers, mammals (...the list goes on) found in the New England area. It even has a collection of star maps for people who are also interested in the New England night sky. The information is well laid out and easy to read and is accompanied by detailed color diagrams and photos. What I like best about this book though is I no longer have to carry around 5 different field guides when I go out hiking now. I only need to carry this one.

Summary: National Audubon Society Field Guide to New England
Comment: I have waited all my life for a nature handbook such as this! So many questions I've had were answered in this book. (ie. what DOES poison sumac really look like? Or, is that REALLY just a milk snake -- or could it be poisonous?)Beautiful pictures, and clearly written, informative sections provide excellent information for nature lovers of every age. This book would be a welcome addition to every New Englander's home library and is small enough to be easily portable for hiking etc. I found myself wanting to give one to everyone I know, from grandchildren to grandparents!

Summary: If it's out there, it's in here!
Comment: Simply an AMAZING book! there's a little bit about a lot of things! Weather, geology, flora and fauna, star charts, sea shells! While you'll need a more specific field guide for your particular interest, this is the one book to have from the beach to the mountains.
Probably an adequate bird guide for hikers, and an adequate hiking guide for birders.
