Research | Books at Memorial

A rich and informative guide to the common — and uncommon — beauty of the province.

The most comprehensive guide of its kind on the market today, the Field Guide to Newfoundland and Labrador features more than 900 photographs and illustrations: from flora and fauna to icebergs and weather; no stone is left unturned in this perfect introduction to the province’s life and landscape.

The guide was compiled and edited by Memorial University biologist Dr. Michael Collins and Honorary Research Professor Dr. Derek Wilton, with contributions from over 20 renowned experts, many of whom are Memorial faculty, including Henry Mann, Norm Catto, Edward Andrews, Tony Dickinson, Gene Herzberg, Stephen Bruneau and Joe Wroblewski, and the late Bob Hooper, Alan Whittick and Fred Smith.

The guide is accessible, durable, perfectly sized and indexed for ease of use in the field.

You’re ready.
