Useful guide by expert botanist Christopher GREY-WILSON, beautifully illustrated with the paintings of Marjorie BLAMEY. Describes over 2,500 species found in the coastal areas (and hinterland up to 1000 metres in altitude) in and around the Mediterranean, including Portugal, Spain, France, Corsica, Italy, Sardinia, Sicily, Balkans, Greece, Crete, Cyprus, Turkey, Syria, Lebanon, Israel, Egypt, Libya, Tunisia, Algeria and Morocco and including all the Mediterranean islands. For reasons of space, does not include common Northern European plants unless they are very conspicuous or useful for comparison.
