"Flora of Svalbard" is an authoritative little hardback; an ideal reference to the geology of the island group of Svalbard. Colour photos and maps complement the detailed text description.
It also includes a chapter on the vegetation of Svalbard, and colour photographs of some rare and little known plants. Focuses on native species found in Svalbard, but also includes some introduced species. It contains Latin, English, and Norwegion names of families, genera, and species; distribution; description; and information about regulations governing the area.
Although originally published in 1993, this book is still an invaluable reference tool for a part of the world where similar books are few and far between.
