Why read it?
1 author picked Collins Complete British Insects as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
In the summer, this book takes over from British Wildlife as my favourite reference book that doesn’t bamboozle me with science. I nearly always find the insect I’m looking for and then inevitably spend half an hour lost in details of the plants it eats or places it lives.
I wouldn’t want to be without this book, and I regularly buy it as a present for friends and family.
From Jane's list on entertaining and fascinating UK nature books.
