National Audubon Society Field Guide to North American Trees--E: Eastern Region by National Audubon Society
A very good book that includes quite a few transplants, hybrids & invasives. Definitely one of the best buys of this type out there. I have a couple of copies & have used them extensively in Maryland & Kentucky. While a few trees have not been included, overall it has met expectations.
National Audubon Society Field Guide to North American Trees: Eastern Region by National Audubon Society
These are great guides and anyone who is interested in nature should have the entire collection. I love being able to identify things I have seen or taken pictures of easily.
A very good, useful guide to the native tree species in Oklahoma.
An update on the field guide that has been published for years; it is a very well done, easy to use reference.
