    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    A comprehensive, richly illustrated photographic field guide to the ferns and lycophytes of the eastern United States and Canada

    This is a comprehensive photographic field guide to the ferns, spikemosses, clubmosses, and quillworts of eastern North America. Accessible yet scientifically accurate, the book will appeal to beginners and experts alike and enhance the field experience of any user.

    Keys, range maps, detailed color photographs, and facing-page species descriptions aid exploration and allow reliable identification of all 305 species found in the area covered by the book—the United States east of the Mississippi and contiguous Canada, except for extreme northern and northeastern Canada. An introduction provides an easy-to-understand overview of identifying characteristics, life cycles, and evolutionary history. Checklists allow readers to record species they have seen, in four subregions. Indexes feature a complete list of common and scientific names, including synonyms, ensuring that users can find the plants they are looking for and keep track of changes in taxonomy. In addition, information about hybrids, polyploids, and reticulate relationships is provided, illuminating the fascinating processes that have led to such a rich diversity of species.

    Modern and innovative, this is the definitive guide to the ferns and lycophytes of eastern North America.

    • Covers all 305 species, belonging to 96 genera and 30 families
    • Features detailed color photos of all species—and facing-page species descriptions
    • Provides checklists for keeping track of species seen
    • Includes common and scientific names and notable synonyms


    "The science is impeccable, the narrative superb, the pictures magnificent. . . . [Ferns, Spikemosses, Clubmosses, and Quillworts of Eastern North America] is a very fine treatment of a complex group of plants that command our attention; indeed our affection. I commend this book to all who love nature in its glorious and often prolific diversity; be sure to use it well - and often!"---David M. Gascoigne, Travels With Birds
