    1. Kathy Knight (verified owner) –

      At first I was not sure I liked the CD format as I don’t like to spend a lot of time reading on a screen. Once I discovered how easy it was to use the search and zoom functions, I realized how much better this was than book format. I could easily compare pictures of different, but similar plants by blowing them up so I could see the detail. The information is really helpful and I had a fun time taking pictures of the plants in my pasture and looking them up. I found several plants that can cause problems with my horses and have dug them up. This CD book is a must for all horse owners who manage their own property.
