2.0 out of 5 stars not enough pictures, November 17, 2008
By BPR "wanderer" (Ontour, United States) - See all my reviews
The book has good information but I expected pictures and drawings for ALL the trees and found very few pictured or illustrated.

5.0 out of 5 stars Tree-rific, October 20, 2008
I carry this book with me when I am out stalking the vegetation of North Florida. Since I rarely do this in winter, I find its descriptions and pictures quite helpful in sorting out the deciduous trees. It helps if you have a basic knowledge of tree forms. Unfortunately more and more of a wide variety of ecologic niches are being over-taken by invasive non-native plants. The taller of these are a nuisance to the fun of the hunt and the opportunity for satisfying photographs.
