A Flower Book for the Pocket by Skene – Vintage Wildflower Guide – Illustrated Nature Book
Delightfully compact and beautifully illustrated, A Flower Book for the Pocket by MacGregor Skene is a charming vintage guide to British wildflowers, created for nature lovers, walkers, and budding botanists alike. Originally published in the mid-20th century, this pocket-sized book was designed to be taken out into the fields and hedgerows, a trusted companion for identifying and appreciating wild blooms on the go.
This well-thumbed copy shows signs of a life well-travelled: there is some colour fading to the cover, and a partially removed old sticker on the front page, both in keeping with its vintage age and outdoor purpose. Inside, however, the illustrations remain in lovely condition—clear, vibrant, and full of period charm.
Whether used as a reference, displayed as part of a vintage book collection, or gifted to a garden lover, this little guidebook is a celebration of both flora and print.
