Environmental Issues, Nature/Gardening/Animals, Science - Biology
Written in the late 19th century by Edward Step, 'Wayside and Woodland Trees: A Pocket Guide to the British Sylva' is a practical resource for identifying native British trees and larger shrubs. The guide not only covers indigenous species but also includes information on naturalized exotic trees. Step emphasizes the ecological and aesthetic importance of trees, contrasting natural growth with commercial forestry practices, and provides unique photographic comparisons of trees in different seasons to aid identification.
