Book Reviews of Trees of North America: A Guide to Field Identification, Revised and Updated (Golden Field Guide from St. Martin's Press)

Book Review: Simple and straightforward
Summary: 5 Stars

Love these Golden books. They are super simple to use, to read and give provide such a great compilation of a lot of information. Wonderful reference book to quickly identify trees in a way that makes it easy and fun to recall. I would much rather get a Golden book than any giant overwhelming encyclopedia of information that just becomes too tedious and time-consuming to use. And I bet we learn just as much, if not more from the little Golden book.
