A field-oriented guide to California’s common ferns

Organized around eighty-six species accounts, this compact guide surveys the ferns commonly found across California. It pairs identification-focused material with a brief introduction to fern biology, including the life cycle of a typical fern, and provides a key to fern families for placing specimens within broader groups. A glossary and suggested references extend its usefulness as a botanical reference. Originally published in 1966 and reissued through UC Press’s Voices Revived program, the volume offers a focused historical resource for learning the distinguishing features and classification of California ferns and their allies.
