Reviews

[Patrick Kelly · Rating 5 out of 5]

I have only read the audiobook version. It’s nice to know that my work place follows this book closely. I am proud of what we do. It’s nice to have things I am doing confirmed and to learn many new things

Pleasantly lucid for a textbook. I guess it’s time to go memorize ANSI Z133.

[Shane · Rating 3 out of 5]

The book is thorough and covers a lot. It needs more advice on experience you can only get from the field, such as tree identification and knot-tying. It also would be useful to include practice tests at the end of the book in addition to the chapter review sections.

[Dennis Baum · Rating 5 out of 5]

Critical study material for the Arborist Certification, but also an excellent source of information about trees!

[Liam Hodack Torpy · Rating 5 out of 5]

A clear and concise overview of topics that all arborists (or urban tree observers like myself) should know about.
