A huge amount of information about tree identification—more than has ever been collected in a single book—is condensed into a logical, accessible, easy-to-use format. With more than 4,100 meticulous, exquisitely detailed paintings, this guide highlights the often subtle similarities and distinctions between more than 600 tree species—native trees as well as many introduced species. No other guide has ever made field identification so clear. Features highlighted include: leaves (including multiple leaf shapes and fall leaf color), bark, needles, cones, flowers, fruit, twigs and silhouettes. More than 500 maps show the complete range, both natural and cultivated, for nearly all species. 426 pages. Softcover. 6" x 9.75".
