Reviews

[Melody Schwarting]

An encyclopedia really has to prove its worth in the information age. The World Encyclopedia of Trees isn't a book to carry to one's local arboretum for identification, but it does make a handy reference book for identifying species and learning about trees in diverse regions. The illustrations are clear but also picturesque. Photographs, illustrations, and maps combine to give the best visual resources for learning about trees. If I had a tree-obsessed young one in my life, this is the book I'd give.

Een mooie encyclopedie over de bekendste en interessantste bomen in de wereld. De illustraties zijn ook erg mooi
