About this copy
A wonderfully informative guide for anyone who loves high meadows and the flowers that grow on them. Dr Bacon, then President of the Alpine Garden Society, drew on his and his wife Joyce's lifelong diaries of mountain holidays to create a vade mecum to the holiday centres of Europe, from the Alps and Pyrenees to Scandinavia and the Balkans. Each chapter pairs practical travel advice with the plants you are likely to find.
A handsome hardback, complete with its dust jacket, and well illustrated throughout.
