This is a beautiful and indispensable guide that will appeal to the expert and amateur alike whether young or old. It offers a wealth of information on identifying over 120 of the most commonly encountered tree species in Britain and Northern Europe. Its compact size means it can be used not only for home reference but also as a pocket companion in the field. Illustrated with over 120 detailed colour artworks and accompanied by accessible yet informed text, this guide is a wonderful addition to any book shelf. The Wildlife Trusts and Wildlife Watch - the UK's leading club for young environmentalists - have been speaking out for wildlife since 1912 and play a key part in restoring the balance between new developments and the natural world. With the specialist skills of volunteers and staff they manage more than 2,300 wildlife reserves.
