Fern Finder: A Guide to Native Ferns of Central and… by Barbara Hallowell

A handy dichotomous key book that identifies ferns fairly well. While some identification requires a loupe or even something stronger, for the most part I am able to get a good idea of what I'm finding along the trail with this guide. It is fairly easy to use compared to many dichotomous key books since it is _targeted at the curious or amateur naturalist rather than the professional botanist or biologist. As an added plus, it fits easily into my hiking bag!
