An Eclectic Guide to Trees East of the Rockies - Blouin, Glen

Clean, tight, unmarked; crease across bottom inside corner of front cover; otherwise very minimal wear; This one-of-a-kind book is certainly an excellent guide to identifying the almost fifty major tree species east of the Rockies. It also provides: the history of each species; its range, record sizes, preferred sites, and seasonal changes; its value as a habitat for wildlife; its role in interspecies interaction; its natural enemies (insects, diseases, wildfires and ice storms); its use by humans as ornamentals, shade trees or windbreaks; it traditional use by Native people for food and medicine; the properties of its wood for wood working, and other domestic and industrial  use; recommendations for planting and care and important notes on conservation.
Very Good
