A comprehensive identification guide to nearly 150 tree species of New York, the Northeast, and much of eastern North America, Donald J. Leopold's botanical descriptions for each species include a summary of its key identification characteristics and extensive information on its leaves, flowers, fruit, winter characteristics, and bark. Additional material is provided in each tree's habit, habitat and range, and uses, including wood properties and value, landscaping, and restoration projects. Also provided are summer keys to each genus and numerous other aids to identifying these species. Line drawings depict numerous, fine diagnostic characteristics of each species. Of the 450 color photographs, those of bark should readily facilitate field identification of mature specimens of most tree species.
