5.0 out of 5 stars Great Resource!
I ordered this book for my boyfriend, who owns a tree service. He loves the book and has learned a great deal of new information from it! It is a great reference to use on the job! Thanks!

1.0 out of 5 stars The Pruning of Trees, Shrubs, and Conifers, September 8, 2009
We found this book to be very difficult for layman to use. It would be great for professionals.

1.0 out of 5 stars usless, October 2, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: The Pruning of Trees, Shrubs and Conifers (Hardcover)
I was given this book as a gift and found it completely and utterly useless. It's just a book full of words of little instruction. Nothing detailed or specific. No helpfull drawings or pictures. A total disappointment.
