| Summary | "Flowers of Mountain and Plain" by Edith S. Clements is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. This work serves as a field guide, primarily aimed at travelers and flower enthusiasts who seek to identify various wildflowers found in the mountainous and plains regions of the Western United States. Through its vivid illustrations and detailed descriptions, the book aims to enhance appreciation for these natural beauties and encourage their conservation. The opening of the book outlines its purpose and includes brief notes on the 175 species of flowers featured, many accompanied by color plates. It emphasizes the intent to aid flower recognizing during excursions, and accompanies descriptions of the flowers with insights into their habitat, blooming seasons, and pollination. For instance, the Monkshood, the Blue Columbine, and the Red Columbine are among the plants described, showcasing their distinct colors, growth requirements, and why they may be encountered in various environments—forming a prelude to a comprehensive exploration of the flora native to the region.
