I am an outdoor enthusiast and was looking for a quality field guide to help with the identification of lesser known tree species, primarily in the spring, summer and early fall months. I have a very good grasp on the basic species in my area but needed help with a few species that look VERY much alike, as well as trees that fall into the rarer category.As usual, I did as much research ahead of time as possible and ended up with three top choices. As I went through the reviews I found a reoccurring theme. The theme was that NO ONE FIELD GUIDE WILL MEET ALL YOUR NEEDS. Field guides are not textbooks and of necessity are not exhaustive because of size constraints. Each guide deals with this in its own fashion. Some are short on text and quality descriptions. Others are short on high quality pictures of leaf, bark, and general tree shape. Still others suffer from inadequate I.D. layout.After considering all the variables, the three that ended up on the top of the list were: National Audubon Society Field Guide to North American trees (Eastern Region) (NAS), Peterson Field Guide to Eastern Trees (PFG) and National Wildlife Federation Field Guide to Trees of North America (NWF). I live in Indiana so all three fit my location. On the upside, of the three guides the PFG has the best, most complete descriptions about the leaf, bark, fruit, ect. It is also has a pretty compact size. Of the three books mentioned it falls in the middle in size. It has a very easy to understand tree I.D. structure. I believe its weakness lies in its poor graphics and pictures. While I would recommend this book as a PRIMARY identification guide because of its thorough handling of the information, I would also recommend purchasing something to help with the visual end of the identification process. I can't say that I am disappointed with it because I purposely purchased it with the intent that I would need other book(s)with better graphics and pictures.Out of the three books I purchased above I found the NWF to be the most useful and complete guide. I believe (IMHO) that it has the best combination and balance of all the areas I mentioned above. It is however the largest of the three and is not a POCKET field guide by any stretch of the imagination. It is even a little heavy for my taste to take on an extended hike in a backpack.If the PFG had better graphics and pictures I would have rated it at the top. It is an excellent resource, but I just could not get past the poor graphics and lack of realistic pictures that the other two books provide.

I have this, and the Eastern Trees of the Audubon Society Field Guides. I recently purchased them both. I much prefer the pictures in the Audubon society book, but this one is organized in a much easier way for making identifications.I recommend them both, but this would be my first choice between the two.I think I'll get Sibley's next.

This is a very well written and organized field manual. However, even with this book, it takes a lot of practice to be able to positively identify trees. While the book does a fair job of describing things like bud scales, I still have found it difficult to identify the differences, thus limiting my ability to identify the tree, particularly in younger trees. Perhaps some hands on mentoring is what is needed to build a better foundation, then this book would be much more helpful.

What qualifies my review:-I have had this product for over a week/-I have used this product in and out each day since, (because I have a lot of free time on my hands).-I have identified more than 30-40 trees with this book (I live close to a forest).Bottom Line:BUY IT. But only If you want to identify trees on your own. Be weary that there is a learning curve with the book. The book is setuplike a process and it teaches you how to use the book itself, which is really nice, but you can't just open to a page and look forthe tree you'd like to identify. If you'd like, you can look up videos on "YouTube.com" for a simpler version of how to use the bookto proper identify trees. Otherwise, its a great book and I enjoy it great. Happy Identifying!My Review:---The Good News---First off, This Field guide is great. Even though it was published in the 1980's-1990's, the content STILL does a wonderful job at helping you identify trees various trees. No wonder they haven't made a updated new one, because this guide is pretty much at the top of the list of "Identifying Eastern Trees." Why is it the top?This guide provides great colored images, good charts that are understandable, scientific names for the tress, separate pages for each and every individual tree, glossary, index, you name it probably has it.---The Bad News---There are only two or three things I could really complain about for this product.1.) The size. It's not very big, which can be a plus, but it's a little smaller than I'd like it, personally. It's back-pocket sized2.) The learning curve that comes with the book. You really have to read and re-read to learn how the book is structured, alongwith what you, the identifier, needs to look for in a tree.3.) It's NOT weatherproof. If you plain on identifying trees, make sure its a nice sunny day and not snowing, sprinkling, raining, or has just rained. I went out with this product after it rained and some of the drops from the tress landed on the pages and they really soaks in the water. So just be careful. It's not a huge deal, but it would be a lot better if it was somewhat waterproof.---Bottom Line---BUY IT. But only If you want to identify trees on your own. Be weary that there is a learning curve with the book. The book is setuplike a process and it teaches you how to use the book itself, which is really nice, but you can't just open to a page and look forthe tree you'd like to identify. If you'd like, you can look up videos on "YouTube.com" for a simpler version of how to use the bookto proper identify trees. Otherwise, its a great book and I enjoy it great. Happy Identifying!

I am giving this 5 stars, BUT. I sent it back because I ordered EASTERN GUIDE like it says, but received the WESTERN GUIDE. I don't need the Western, I need Eastern.However, the Western guide looked great and like it would be exactly what I wanted if I lived in the West US. Ordering again soon in hope that I get the correct guide.EDIT- Ordered twice. Received Western Guide again. Maybe three times will be a charm?

It's informative but the lay out makes it hard to actually ID trees in the field. I would rather have actual photos and not drawn pictures.
