Countless other enthusiasts have seen their glorious wildflower photographs in books and magazines. Here the Nourses draw on years of travel around the state to share their favorite places for seeing wildflowers. Of the many walks the Nourses have taken, these are the ones they return to most often because of the density or the unusual nature of the floral display. All twenty of these wildflower walks are on public land; everything you need to know about how to find them and what to do once you're there is included. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFive walks are presented from each of Georgia's four geographic regions: Cumberland Plateau\/Ridge and Valley (northwestern Georgia); Blue Ridge (northeastern Georgia); Piedmont (Georgia foothills and fall line); and Coastal Plain (all of Georgia below the fall line). For each walk, a scenic photo gives a hint of the locale's overall character. In addition, five of the wildflowers encountered on the walk are profiled with a photograph and a detailed description. All of the wildflowers on these walks are native to Georgia. A few are rare and endangered. Common plant names are used in the main text; the index lists both common and scientific names. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eCoverage of each walk includes directions and a trail map plus information about: flowering seasonpeak flowering periodflower habitatswalk length and difficultyrestroom availabilityapplicable fees\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCarol Nourse (Author) \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e CAROL NOURSE, with her spouse and longtime partner, Hugh Nourse, has published photographs and writings about wildflowers in \u003ci\u003eAmerican Gardener\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eBackpacker\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eNature Photographer\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eWildflower\u003c\/i\u003e magazines.
