DESCRIPTION:
magellan said Great little guide. The little Golden Guides were a great way to learn about many aspects of natural history when I was a boy, and I continued to find them useful as I got older. I loved these little guides and would pore over them literally for hours in grade school and junior high, trying to absorb everything in them. Edited by the great Herbert S. Zim, Ph.D., who wrote 90 books during his long career and was the editor of about 90 more, he performed a tremendous service for young people in initiating,. Bring this book back I have kept a copy of this book for years and would recommend it widely as an inexpensive but useful field guide for gardeners, Master Gardeners and anyone with an interest in pest identification. The problem is that it is out of print. If you find a copy in a used bookstore, buy it. Being last revised in 1966, it is a little out of date (with all the new pests we've imported in recent years), but still a useful introduction to the commonest pests.. "Wonder" according to Marilyn A Wootton. Saw this book at a friends and was so impressed with all the information, I just had to have one for myself. It's great!
