Bring this book back

I have kept a copy of this book for years and would recommend it widely as an inexpensive but useful field guide for gardeners, Master Gardeners and anyone with an interest in pest identification. The problem is that it is out of print. If you find a copy in a used bookstore, buy it. Being last revised in 1966, it is a little out of date (with all the new pests we've imported in recent years), but still a useful introduction to the commonest pests.

Golden Nature Guides are the best!

I love these books! The botanical illustrations are far superior to muddy photos, and they show all the details including the habitat. Well-organized, too. Vintage and adorable, even when it's about pests! Over 350 pests in home, garden, field, etc.
