A publication illustrated by 

 actual specimens, with full text. 



" However much you may have observed and admired the 

 familiar trees, you have much to learn of their character and 

 beauty if you have not studied them in the light of this remark- 

 able publication."— New York Observer. 



" I thoroughly endorse your work in the cause of true Amer- 

 ican forestry. Nothing has in its way contributed more to the 

 cause. It meets a real want." — Chas. L. Pack. 



HANDBOOK OF THE TREES 



A VOLUME OF AMERICAN WOODS" DISPLAYED 



Note that the pages are separable to facilitate 

 examination and go with the text in a clasped 



book-like cover. 



"An extraordinarily thorough and attractive handbook 

 of the trees, furnished with realistic illustrations of tree 

 sections, barks, leaves, and fruits that almost carry the 

 scent and touch of the original."— New York Tiaves. 



" Have been examining it page by page, and I find it a 

 perfectly delightful book. Your illustrations of the 

 leaves, fruits, etc., are very fine, indeed, while the illus- 

 trations of the trunks of trees are works of art. To every 

 lover of trees this book will be a source of inspiration." — 

 Dr. J. N. Rose, National Herbarium, Wash., D. C. 



" It exactly fills my needs as a summer resident among 

 trees and with a son interested in what is growing about 

 him."— E. B. Mitchell. 



" Unique and a joy to all lovers of forestry."— F. W. 

 Rane, State Forester of Massachusetts. 



Photo-descriptive. 



Enables one unfa- 

 miliar with botany to identify the trees and learn 

 much about them. 



" Indispensable for public and school libraries, for all students 

 of trees, and for botanical laboratories. Everything that has 

 been attempted seems to have been well planned and well ex- 

 ecuted. We cannot think of an item which would contribute to 

 greater completeness." — Botanical Gazette. 



"Altogether the most interesting and valuable book on 

 trees I have ever seen. A fine example of an excellent 

 plan thoroughly carried out. It is worth fully double the 

 amount you charge for it. Send me six more copies." — 

 W. H. Boardman, Editor Railroad Gazette. 



"Am greatly impressed with the very thorough manner 

 in which each tree is illustrated. I am glad to have a 

 copy."— Gifford Pinchot, U. S. Forester, Wash., D. C. 



" We would like to congratulate you upon the plan, the 

 thoroughness of the concise descriptions, and the beauty 

 of the pictures."— Harper & Brothers. 



"We are impressed with the comprehensiveness of 

 the information presented and the beauty and precision 

 of the illustrations."— G. P. Putnam's Sons. 



We also have a large line of Preparations of Woods for Slereopticon and Microscope, Stereopticon Views cf
