Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Leaf Key to the Trees, of the Northern States and Canada, and a Botanical Glossary
In this Leaf Key we have aimed to include all of the generally accepted native and naturalized trees north of the latitude of the northern boundary of North Carolina and east of the Rocky Mountains. To form a key, however, that would fit all of the unusual or non-typical forms of leaves of each species would seem to be a hopeless task, but to make one fit the typical leaves - such as we consider as distinctive of the various species and by which we recognize them - seems possible and has been here attempted.
