"Clear and concise text, easy-to-use keys, breathtaking photography, exquisite line drawings, and easily tucked into your backpack! What more could one ask of this nifty field guide?" - Helen Jeude, Botanical Research Institute of Texas "An outstanding addition to previous similar works by the same author-artist teamHowever, this work and the others are much more than mere 'field guides'! They clarify and update information regarding the orchid flora of the United States.... The 'where-to-look-for-orchids' portion alone may be worth more than the price of the book." - Dr. Robert J. Ferry, McAllen (Texas) International Orchid Society"
