Greek Nature Field Guide

From their Preface the authors tell us, “… you will be amazed not only by the wealth of plants and animals you come across but also by the variety of biotopes …

… As an active nature lover, however, you would need to carry a range of books covering the different groups of plants and animals in order to identify what you observe.”

Greek Nature aims to facilitate the nature lovers in their exploration of Greek nature by providing information and illustrations on a wide spectrum of plant and animals saving them the discomfort of carry 2 or 3 field guides.”

The authors have reached their goal with this marvelous field guide!
