Every nature lover needs this guide." --Portland Book Review This handsome volume is the result of a collaboration among leading scientists, scholars, taxonomic and field experts, photo editors, and designers.

The guide includes an important new category on conservation status and essays by leading scholars who provide holistic insights into the world of trees. Whether putting a name to the towering conifers spotted along a hike or getting to know the trees that grow in the backyard, readers will come to rely on this work of remarkable breadth, depth, and elegance. It is a must-have reference for the library of any nature lover, and is poised to become the number one guide in the field.
