Review:
If you are at all interested in what comprises that magnificent green growth out there, this easy-to-use guidebook will be indispensable. -- Will Wigle, The Province In writing the present Trees and Shrubs of British Columbia, Brayshaw has made significant revisions and updates regarding taxonomy, nomenclature, species included and keys. The result is an impressive treatise that describes all woody species in BC from the tallest tree to mat-forming alpine species. -- Wilf Nicholls, Discovery Christopher Brayshaw... has produced another fine edition of this useful handbook on B.C.'s trees and shrubs. The attractive guide includes new material, revised nomenclature and keys, and updated sources. ...technical but user-friendly text... References, an index, and an especially useful glossary are provided. The volume will serve as a valuable resource guide in the province. -- Patrick Colgan, Canadian Book Review Annual, 1996
