Reviews of the book
29th February - I just received yesterday a copy of the new guidebook, from Colletts! David and Cliff did a great job! I was a little worried it would have too few specimens, like the Alpine Flowers book I bought in Corvara with just 70 flowers. Mountain Flowers - The Dolomites has nearly 140, with great photos, common names in three languages, and very useful environmental information.

1st March 2012 - I received 'Mountain Flowers - The Dolomites' yesterday and I love it! Very beautiful photography of native habitat of my favorite plants along with great information on their growing environment. Great to see them in their native haunts. I also like the way it's bound. Thank you so much!

1st March 2012 - Brilliant, the colour production is very good and the size and spiral binding are just the job for field work by your target audience. Well done to David & Cliff!.

1st March 2012 - 'Mountain Flowers - The Dolomites' is just lovely! Perfect size to carry around, really easy spiral binding but more importantly, the content: The photos are clear, as are the descriptions and there is the right amount of information without being over wordy, thank goodness. I've spent a fair amount of time searching for a good and up-to-date guide, so I'm very happy. I wish you every success with the sales in the future.

Congratulations on your new book, "Mountain Flowers: The Dolomites", that I received yesterday from Colletts. It is lovely guide, so well designed and layed out, with spectacular photos and just right write-ups. I really like the size, spiral binding and coating - just right for the pocket or pack and practical for hiking. I look forward, someday in the not too distant future, to using it on a visit to the Dolomites, preferably on one of your walks with Collett's. I hope you will consider a similar volume for the Picos de Europa? Thank you for creating this lovely book.

Thank you for my book which arrived a couple of weeks ago. I must say it has lots of really excellent points.
The size is good as it will fit in your pocket. The ring binder style is excellent, easy to turn to the flower picture and no spine to weaken causing you to lose pages. The way the flowers are grouped in colours is great as it will be easy to match species and of course the photography is beautiful . All in all a really well thought out book which I can’t wait to use in June when I take one of your holidays!
