Erstausgabe
Paperback. Zustand: Good. Illustrated by Best, Keith F. (illustrator). First Edition Thus. "Most of the 104 grasses described and illustrated in this book are native species that grow on the rangelands of the Prairie Provinces of Canada. Several have been introduced from other countries and they are grown for hay and pasture on cultivated land. A few are persistent weeds in grainfields and pastures. Some are abundant throughout the prairie region; others grow only in narrowly defined habitats. Many are valuable forage species in southern British Columbia, Eastern Canada, and Northern United States, as well as in Prairie Provinces. It is often necessary to identify a grass before it has flowered, after flowers are no longer present, or, indeed, even after some of the plant has been eaten by animals. Such a need is met by this publication. It provides a key that makes use of vegetative characters only. These characters are present in the roots, stalks, and leaves of grasses." - Foreword. 239 pages. Includes a full-page diagram of each species. Prior owner's bookplate atop title page otherwise unmarked with average wear. Binding tender but intact. A worthy copy of this excellent reference. ; Illustrations; 8vo.
