- Kaufman Field Guide to Nature of New England
Useful, covers a lot of ground in 1 book! Great book- I purchased because I can’t find my New England field guide by the Audubon Society, but I don’t want to have duplicates if/when that one turns up. I like the Kaufman guide even better. Same size, weight, general layout, but the pics are clearer, less contrast-y than the Audubon guide, thus easier to view. Has a wide variety, also covers common invasive species and incidentals. Keep it in my car at all times for camping, road trips, general “what the heck is that” moments.
Love this book! Excellent book for anyone who enjoys nature in New England. It covers everything from stars to frogs to birds to plants. Great book to keep in the car for those quick walks. You’ll want a more in-depth book for your main area of interest, but this book is great for a beginner naturalist. Bought it for my daughter but may pick up another copy for myself. Sharp illustrations, nice size for a backpack.
Great little book that so far is a perfect intro … Great little book that so far is a perfect intro for me into identifying the natural landscape of New England. I plan to take it with me on some hiking trips in the spring but for now I’ve used it to i.d. various trees in the parks of my neighborhood.
