Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from St. Nicholas, Vol. 32: An Illustrated Magazine for Young Folks; Part II, May, 1905, to October, 1905
To know the trees, especially our fine Ameri can forest trees, is to possess friends whose character can always be depended upon, and whose intimate acquaintance brings continual and increasing pleasure.
It is surprising how few people know even a verv little about our trees; and this is as true of country people as it is of those who live in cities. Perhaps it is because the scientists have frightened people with their formidable Latin names, but whatever the cause, the fact remains that few people can walk through the woods or parks and name correctly half a dozen trees.
