Graham Stuart Tjomas in his book about perennials (the Modern
Florigelum) has a zone map as does Hugh Johnsons "The Principles of
Gardening" the latter also explains Sunset zones and tries to show
,using a map how the USDA zones are applied to the British Isles.
Bothe I think are essential reads for a serious perennial gardener and i
commend the to you.
