This nontechnical guide to coastal wetland plants is the salt-water equivalent of Dennis W. Magee's Freshwater Wetlands and follows its format, including clear line drawings by the same illustrator, and easy-to-use indented keys to the more than 150 species of plants described and illustrated. An additional 130 "similar species" are briefly described. A concise overview of coastal wetland ecology describes the seven principal habitat types. Included are a helpful review of plant characteristics, discussion of and maps for the major wetland holdings in the ten northeasternmost states, and lists of government agencies and private environmental organizations. 285 pages.
