5.0 out of 5 stars Georgia's Best Dendrology Book, June 17, 2000
By Justin Tyson (Portal, GA) - See all my reviews
This book by Brown & Kirkman is the best resource I have seen for those interested in tree identification anywhere in the Southeast. It includes excellent descriptions of over 200 native trees, as well as hundreds of color photographs. There are also charts for identifying every family, genus, and species in the summer and winter. Also included is a list of many non-native species which could be confused with our native trees. Because most other books about dendrology in the Southeast are so outdated, this is definitely the best resource available for any botanist, forester, or anyone else who would like a greater appreciation of our most fascinating natural resource.

5.0 out of 5 stars An invaluable resource for field botanists, April 3, 2000
By M. Davis (Auburn, AL) - See all my reviews
Brown & Kirkman have synthesized a wonderful, comprehensive guide to Georgia trees. Many species distributions overlap with other states, however, so this guide is useful for most of the Southeast. In addition to species descriptions, they include valuable habitat and economic information. Perhaps the most unique feature is the "Recognition difficulties with other taxa" section that is included with every species description. Now even beginning botanists can distinguish Post Oak from Sand Post Oak with ease.

3.0 out of 5 stars Pictures in the center of the book., June 6, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I's like this book a lot more if the all the tree photos were adjacent to the text description, instead of all the pictures being concentrated in the center of the book.
