Peterson First Guides are the first books the beginning naturalist needs. Condensed versions of the famous Peterson Field Guides, the First Guides focus on the animals, plants, and other natural things you are most likely to see. They make it fun to get into the field and easy to progress to the full-fledged Peterson Guides. The Peterson First Guide to Wildflowers features: 188 common and conspicuous wildflowers of northeastern and north-central North America; illustrations grouped by flower color for quick identification; a clear, precise description of each flower, and the famous Peterson Identification System, which shows you exactly what to look for.
