Andrew said:Robin, I bought this book on a recommendation from Darrell Clegg. It is 'Field Guide to the Dragonflies and Damselflies of Great Britain & Ireland' by Steve Brooks & Richard Lewington. The ISBN number is 0-953-13990-5. It is a bit thin for a near £20 book but having read it, I say it is brilliant and easy to follow.
I bought this book a few weeks ago and have to agree with Andrew's comments re the size/price ratio, but it is very good and includes all the dragonflies you are likely to see in this country.
M N Reeder said:This is by far the best Dragonfly Fieldguide currently available, and probably the only one that fits in your pocket. It certainly helped us at Marazion on saturday when we found the Lesser Emperor. Richard Lewington's pictures are superb, his Butterfly guide is also worth a look.
