FOREWORD

For more than a generation this book has introduced thousands of children and adults to the diversity of the natural world. It has helped to increase peoples awareness of the environment and to share the pleasure of learning and understanding natural history. This guide illustrates 143 of the most familiar trees and the text gives concise information to help identify each one.

Many individuals and institutions have helped make this guide a success. The authors, artists, and consultants for the first edition accomplished so much and did it so well that all of us who followed have built on the firmest of foundations. The organizing and writing skills of Herbert S. Zim and Alexander C. Martin set a standard for all other books to come. The illustrations of Dorothea and Sy Barlowe have also proven their excellence. They are as useful today as they were when they were first painted. Invaluable contributions were made to the first edition by Leland Prater, Henry K. Svenson, Harold N. Moldenke, William H. Durkin, and Donald G. Huttleston. James L. Luteyn helped revise the information in this guide for the previous edition. The present revision reflects the latest information on trees. We hope it will continue to help readers of all ages recognize and appreciate the trees around us.
