 Concise and well photographed. May 8, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I am an herbalist and needed a good reference guide to make sure that I was finding the correct species of trees for my studies. This book is easy to use, concise, and well photographed. I like how it includes photos of the leaves, bark, fruit, and flowers of the trees. I also like the discussions of where they grow as well as what kind of terrain they prefer.

I purchased this as a gift for my brother. The book has plenty of pictures and information, and I thought it was easy to follow and understand. My brother agrees, and said it is exactly what he wanted in a field guide.
This little guide is really helpful! August 13, 2007

I live in Michigan and already own the Birds of Michigan Guide by Stan Tekeila. So, when I saw the Trees Guide of Michigan by the same author, I decided to give it a try.
We moved to an area in Michigan with some nice old trees in our yard that I had no idea what they were. After I received the book, a few days ago, I went outside to check out some trees. I found out what they were immediately. I had a Bur Oak and another was Witch Hazel. I took a leaf from each and put it right in the book so I wouldn't forget.
The Trees of Michigan Field Guide is really handy to use. There is a photo on one page with additional little photos of the bark, cone and so on. Then the other page gives hints about the particular tree so that you can identify it. One interesting fact is how long each tree might live. The Bur Oak should live between 150 and 250 years! I am pretty sure it was here when the Indians lived in this area. It is pretty huge.
This is a fine little book and I would highly recommend it.
Love this series! August 3, 2007
Stan Tekiela provides compact, informative books in his Field Guide series. I have purchased 5 of them (Wildflowers, Trees, Birds, Frogs/Amphibians and Mammals of Michigan) and use them weekly. I just wish he would produce more. They are easy to carry in pockets, backpacks, etc. and contain most of the species. Great work!

This is a user friendly guide for amateurs. Its pocket-sized format makes it easy to take along. The pictures and discriptions are well done and make identification easy. I recommend it for youth and adults.
