A heavy-weight field guide if ever there was one - but after nearly 30 years of tramping around in the Cape (and wishing I had a comprehensive reference work that was user friendly for the dumb-as-me), the best I’ve found. The fynbos is a rich - and confusing - resource and this peach of a book will help you sort your way through it. And it’s beautifully illustrated and easy to use, too! It belongs in every tourist guide’s library - and in every guest house library, too.
