With an unprecedented depth of visual detail, Antoine le Hardy de Beaulieu has compiled an authoritative pictorial encyclopedia of oaks, known to botanists as members of the genus Quercus. In two volumes and nearly 2500 color photographs, the story of oaks is told, from the shape of the smallest acorn to the habit of the tallest forest tree. The author and his photographers traveled the planet in search of exceptional specimens to photograph—the results are often as dazzling as they are instructive and useful. Each entry in this illustrated guide includes a concise and practical description, as well as special notes of value to gardeners and landscape designers on cold hardiness and cultural needs. Horticulturists, botanists, landscape architects, foresters, and all plant enthusiasts will find the book to be an indispensable reference. No other work brings together so many images of these beloved trees.
