Manual of the Vascular Plants of Northeastern United States
and Adjacent Canada, Second Edition (1991), Henry A. Gleason and Arthur CronquistThis second edition of the Manual was completely revised by
Cronquist, the taxa rearranged according to his phylogenetic system, and the
nomenclature updated. The general keys, long known for their ease of use,
have been revised, new synoptic keys added, and the glossary expanded.
This edition reflects an effort to incorporate into a single comprehensive
account the results of modern taxonomic research on the flora of the area
covered, with due regard to all past accounts, all in the light of Cronquist's
critical evaluation. The aim is to make it possible for the user to
correctly identify a plant using only a hand lens or occasionally a dissecting
microscope. Hardcover, 986 pages.
