"A volume for a lifetime" is how The New Yorker described the first of Donald Culross Peatie's two books about American trees published in the 1950s. In this one-volume edition, modern readers are introduced to one of the best nature writers of the last century. As we read Peattie's eloquent and entertaining accounts of American trees, we catch glimpses of our country's history and past daily life that no textbook could ever illuminate so vividly. Here you'll learn about everything from how a species was discovered to the part it played in our country’s history. Pioneers often stabled an animal in the hollow heart of an old sycamore, and the whole family might live there until they could build a log cabin. The tuliptree, the tallest native hardwood, is easier to work than most softwood trees; Daniel Boone carved a sixty-foot canoe from one tree to carry his family from Kentucky into Spanish territory. In the days before the Revolution, the British and the colonists waged an undeclared war over New England's white pines, which made the best tall masts for fighting ships. It's fascinating to learn about the commercial uses of various woods -- for paper, fine furniture, fence posts, matchsticks, house framing, airplane wings, and dozens of other preplastic uses. But we cannot read this book without the occasional lump in our throats. The American elm was still alive when Peattie wrote, but as we read his account today we can see what caused its demise. Audubon's portrait of a pair of loving passenger pigeons in an American beech is considered by many to be his greatest painting. It certainly touched the poet in Donald Culross Peattie as he depicted the extinction of the passenger pigeon when the beech forest was destroyed. A Natural History of North American Trees gives us a picture of life in America from its earliest days to the middle of the last century. The information is always interesting, though often heartbreaking. While Peattie looks for the better side of man's nature, he reports sorrowfully on the greed and waste that have doomed so much of America's virgin forest.

The Encyclopedia of Trees is the first in a series of lavishly illustrated reference books published by Key Porter Books. It is a comprehensive study of the 300 tree species native to North America, alphabetically organized according to Latin name. The Encyclopedia of Trees acquaints readers with all currently recognized tree species native to North America, providing a "snap-shot" description of each tree, its most salient features and its natural environment. Benvie highlights the significant and notable uses and values of each species, and furnishes the work with a comprehensive chart rating zone hardiness. This is a useful guide for selecting and situating trees and will be invaluable to the gardener for determining whether a particular tree is adaptable to the summer and winter temperature extremes in any given area. Lavishly illustrated with vivid full colour photographs on every page and written in simple, practical language, this book is useful to anyone interested in gardening or landscaping in North America.
