Wow, that's a cool-looking mushroom. Wonder what it is. Hey, look at that weird insect. Birds, mammals, trees, wildflowers, insects, reptiles, amphibians, fish, spiders, mushrooms, ferns, grasses, even constellations overhead and rocks underfoot--it's all here. With authoritative yet broad coverage, nontechnical language, and more than two thousand color photographs, this book is an essential reference for nature lovers living in or visiting Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Iowa.

  • excellent illustrations, photos and concise text

    More than just a comprehensive Field Guide with a easy-to-use tabbed layout for each of the 15 sections; it is a wonderfully worded book to just enjoy reading. It is like when I was a child looking things up in a pictured encyclopedia and being delighted and amazed to find confirmation of the observations in, and of Nature my Dad had loved to share with us. "How did that old man know so much!"

  • A Comprehensive Overview of Midwest Nature

    I've seen many field guides for the midwest, but none quite like this one. What makes the Kaufman Field Guide to Nature unique is that it covers all categories of nature in one book. There are birds, plants, flowers, fish, snakes, and more. For a comprehensive overview, it can't be beat. Using it, I can find basic genus or species level information on something, and then use that to learn more in a specialized field guide. The Kaufman Field Guide to Nature is a convenient, pocket sized book, and one that any naturalist will be sure to bring everywhere.

  • Learn all there is in the northwest part of the United States.

    The Kaufmans are always dependable to give clear and complete information on whatever they are writing about. This book is no less. There is information so as a person taking a casual walk along a country lane could identify just about anything they see.
