The Trees of Great Britain and Ireland (Cambridge Library Collection)

Privately printed in seven volumes between 1906 and 1913, this widely regarded work covers the varieties, distribution, history and cultivation of tree species in the British Isles. The strictly botanical parts were written by Henry, while Elwes drew on his extensive knowledge of native and non-native species to give details of where remarkable examples could be found. Each volume contains photographic plates as well as drawings of leaves and buds to aid identification.
