Between desert and tropics, the Sudan holds a flora all its own. Broun catalogs its plants systematically, with keys to the families and a full botanical glossary for identifying what grows across the region. A serious reference for the field botanist in northeast Africa. Name the plants of the Sudan, family by family.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
