Guida ai Fiori del Gran Sassos d'Italia. 2015. illus. 200 p. gr8vo. Paper bd.- In Italian.

The guide shows in one hundred and fifty cards illustrated by as many colour photographs the most representative species of the Gran Sasso massif, favouring plants of high floristic interest for ecological, phytogeographical and conservationist reasons without neglecting their aesthetic value.

This is a work with a popular slant that, while retaining its scientific value, can be well understood by all.

The descriptive sheets contain data on family, scientific name, morphology, flowering, habitat, general and regional geographical distribution. A useful glossary and indexes of scientific and Italian names enrich the publication. The format is agile and suitable for excursionists.
