Mosses of the Northern Forest: A Photographic Guide (The Northern Forest Atlas Guides)

If you are interested in identifying mosses, this is a great book. The author has taught at Eagle Hill Institute. The photos are superb.

I collect moss for terrariums. This has been great for identification and taxonomy. I love it.

A most complete source for identifying mosses. Appreciate all the colorful pictures and regions where they grow.I don't understand why Amazon stopped consumers from looking inside books.

The media could not be loaded. I make terrariums for a living and I often go out looking for moss, finding new species to collect and experiment with. But there are so many types that identifying them can be a challenge. This book helps me to do just that. It’s not a field book due to its size, in that respect it’s more of a coffee table book (gorgeous cover and photos!).The key is helpful in identifying which species are common, which are rare and which will need a microscope for proper identification.I think the clear photography is the best part of this one, as many moss ID books have such poor photos.

Great reference book, beautiful photos and arrived in perfect condition. Thank you!

This book is fantastic!! So many wonderful details and presented in a way that was very well thought out. So glad I stumbled upon this book! My 4 year old loves it to, she points out her favorite types of moss.

Quite helpful book for beginners to ID mosses, even if you don't live near the great northern forest. I especially like the "maps" showing typical locations within a habitat for different kinds of mosses.

The book is gorgeous and highly recommended. This copy, however, arrived crinkled and roughed up along the edges. There are also numerous scratches in the cover, thought it is hard to capture these with my phone cover. I normally buy used books and am not too fussed about condition... but for a showpiece photo book bought new, it's pretty disappointing, especially as I am giving it as a gift. It looks used. Perhaps I got a returned copy. I would reorder, but there is not enough time before Christmas, given how slowly Amazon ships to Alaska. Frustrating.
