this book deals only Northern Europe, including France, but without the mediterranean coast. Apart from this, it meets the need for quick identification when you're on the go. We quickly found families, or flowers by color. The drawings are very good M.Blamey of course. There are shown a summary of families and flowers in the middle. It is light and very nice handling. The minimum is specified for each flower: it is not a plant, much less a complete flora, but this is not what we asked, that identify in the field easily and quickly: a weight compromise / content.
