Tree Feild Guide

this book has very good descriptions and images to help identify trees. Only problem is that it is just a little to bulky to bring out to the field all the time.

Amateur Field Guide User

It's a good book, plenty of pictures, water-proof cover, and my girlfriend, who knows something about trees, said it is very informative and has easy organization.

Best tree book I have seen!

I have had and looked at dozens of ID books, and they all have ups and downs.This, as far as I can tell, has little to no downs. It has a wonderful layout with pictures and text together...no more flipping back and forth! It also is organized so that you can search by leaf type. Even if you don't know how to tell the difference...the info on how to tell the different leaf patterns is all at the front of the book.
