Editorial Reviews
Review
—P. Allen Smith
“In my opinion, there is not a woody plant book of another state that can compare with this one. A much-needed publication that is well written for both the specialist/botanist/ecologist and the lesser prepared. This book will do more than anything else I can think of to advance public education toward things botanical.”
—Dr. Gary Tucker, Senior Ecologist, FTN Associates, Ltd.
“This is a gorgeous book packed with authoritative information on the woody plants of Arkansas. Buy it and use it often to explore and appreciate the amazing diversity of Arkansas’s flora and natural areas!”
—Dr. Alan Weakley, Director of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Herbarium and author of Flora of the Southeastern United States
“Every once in a while, a book comes along that you didn’t know that you really need. Such is the case with the recent Ozark Society Foundation publication Trees, Shrubs and Woody Vines of Arkansas which was just released in January 2021. … The new Trees, Shrubs, and Woody Vines of Arkansas greatly expands the scope by including all known woody plants, native or alien, established in the Arkansas Flora. The book contains more than 1,500 photographs and illustrations. … In short, this is one of those books that should be in every home in Arkansas.”
—Steven Foster, Eureka Springs Independent
