Trees by Bon Watson is a good one

 

Aboriculture by Harris Clark and matheney is also good.

 

Trees and forests a colour guide by Bryan Bowes covers a lot.

 

The three yellow books principles of tree hazard management and assessment, diagnosis of I'll health in trees and the body language of trees are must haves.

Trees: Their Natural History, by Thomas

 

Covers a wide area of information and is nicely written

[Mikelawn]

Thanks guys I will look them up and get them ordered. Keep reading the daily star at dinner and that doesn't really teach u much lol.

 

Appreciated...mike
