  • Concise natural history facts about more than 60 native species
  • Provides an easy-to-use illustrated identification key based on the most reliable and non-technical features of each species
  • Features the ecology and human history associated with all Northwest trees
  • Includes 185 exceptionally accurate drawings as well as historical photos that bring these trees to life
