The continually increasing demand for books of\u003cbr\u003ethis character indicates the growing public interest not only in the\u003cbr\u003etrees that we pass in our daily walks, but also in the forest considered\u003cbr\u003eas a community of trees, because of its aesthetic and protective value\u003cbr\u003eand its usefulness as a source of important economic products.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs a nation, we are thinking more about trees and woods than we were\u003cbr\u003ewont to do in the years gone by. We are growing to love the trees and\u003cbr\u003eforests as we turn more and more to outdoor life for recreation and\u003cbr\u003esport. In our ramblings along shady streets, through grassy parks, over\u003cbr\u003ewooded valleys, and in mountain wildernesses we find that much more than\u003cbr\u003eformerly we are asking ourselves what are these trees, what are the\u003cbr\u003eleaf, flower, twig, wood and habit characteristics which distinguish\u003cbr\u003ethem from other trees; how large do they grow; under what conditions of\u003cbr\u003esoil and climate do they thrive best; what are their enemies and how can\u003cbr\u003ethey be overcome; what is their value for wood and other useful\u003cbr\u003eproducts; what is their protective value; are they useful for planting\u003cbr\u003ealong streets and in parks and in regenerating forests; how can the\u003cbr\u003etrees of our streets and lawns be preserved and repaired as they begin\u003cbr\u003eto fail from old age or other causes? All these questions and many more\u003cbr\u003erelating to the important native and exotic trees commonly found in the\u003cbr\u003estates east of the Great Lakes and north of Maryland Mr. Levison has\u003cbr\u003ebriefly answered in this book. The author's training as a forester and\u003cbr\u003ehis experience as a professional arboriculturist has peculiarly fitted\u003cbr\u003ehim to speak in an authoritative and interesting way about trees and\u003cbr\u003ewoods.","brand":"SAP","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47069566402800,"sku":"2940015619164","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940015619164","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
