1989 1st edition. Pp367. Colour photographs, colour paintings by Elizabeth Rice, b/w illustrations, maps, bibliography. Laminated boards.
A scholarly and practically useful guide to the field crops of Europe. Timber trees and wild plants, such as sea weeds, which are gathered commercially have been excluded, but every group of plants grown for economic purposes, on whatever scale, has been included. Crops are dealt with in taxonomic order, with discussion of each family as a whole, followed by comments on each species or group of varieties. Keys foridentification are given as well as excellent colour paintings. Useful bibliography.
