A Field Guide to Weeds, 2007

 Item — Box: 2
Identifier: N7433.4 .B427 F54 2007

Scope and Contents

"This book masquerades as a 19th-century pocket guide, but a guide in which the weeds themselves have taken over. It uses the physical form of the book as a metaphor for a crack in the city sidewalk: the dandelion, pigweed, and poison ivy—-the very plants we step over, ignore, dig up, or scrupulously avoid—-creep out of the gutter, up pages, and overrun the book."--from idealcities.com
