- Summary
- "With detailed information and illustrations covering each phase of a tree's lifecycle, this indispensible guidebook explains how to identify trees by their bark alone. Chapters on the structure and ecology of tree bark, descriptions of the bark appearance, an easy-to-use identification key, and supplemental information on non-bark characteristics -- all enhanced by over 450 photographs, illustrations, and maps -- will show you how to distinguish the textures, shapes, and colors of bark to recognize various tree species, and also understand why these traits evolved."
