Inside Our Books
The author of the first edition, Jack L. Carter and major illustrator, Marjorie C. Leggitt, remain fully involved in producing this new edition. They have been joined by other illustrators, photographers and students of the flora of Colorado. We think the photographs will provide a new field experience for those who make this book a part of their home and field library.
