For years Anna Comstock's Handbook of Nature Study has been an essential tool for all budding naturalists but its large size made it impractical in the field. It has now been broken up into individual sections for easy portability. New full-color photos are included for those times that you're unable to see nature up close. This volume features the Introduction to Plant Study, Wildflower, Weed and Cultivated Crops sections along with the author's lesson questions, suggested readings, and teacher's stories. Grab this book along with a field guide specific to your area and enjoy delving into the endlessly fascinating world that is nature-study.
