Excerpt from A Guide to the Trees There is a solemnity, a repose about the great trees, and the restless, ceaseless stirring of the small ones is full of mystery. So self-evident are they, so close at hand that we almost find ourselves in danger of becoming oblivious to their presence. They never intrude upon the attention; they rather pursue indomitably their own way. As landmarks of history many trees have been revered; traditions and superstitions have clustered about them while in mute eloquence they have answered the people's expectations. In England, to-day, there are oaks standing that knew the ground before its conquest by the Romans. Nothing is grander than are trees. Nothing gives of its best more freely to man. And to each one there is an individuality which having once been observed may be traced into the folk-lore of nations. But before the trees can truly impress us, before we can appreciate them in their fullest expression, we should know something of them scientifically, - their manner of growth, their sources of life and the often subtle differences which separate them into families and genera and species. Later we may forget these things, and regard them simply from the standpoint of their appearance. To combine, therefore, a necessary amount of scientific knowledge while not to lose sight of the character and recognised place each tree holds in its great world has been an aim in the writing of "A Guide to the Trees." Nearly two hundred trees and some shrubs have been herein included. Among them are all those prominent in Northeastern America and a few distinctive and rare species from the south and west. Several also that are not indigenous but which have become identified with the tree-life of this country have been presented.
