Anyone who has some field guides should buy this one because it is an overview of the natural world of the Eastern U.S. So many questions are answered in a concise way. I read the book from cover to cover, a new experience as I don't normally read field guides as if they were books. The book is easy to read. An excellent gift for those interested in nature.

This is a great, concise book for taking on field work expeditions. Very informative, excellent color pictures, and wonderful descriptions of Eastern Decidious Forest Binome.

This is a high quality book at a very decent price, it is interesting and covers almost all facets of the forests, and in a way, goes a little bit beyond that with sections on butterflys, insects and other plants besides trees.Like it is mentioned in other reviews, this is not a guide per say to plants, animals,etc.but it is a fairly decent read.

The purpose of this guide is not to assist one in identifying species of flora and fauna found in the Eastern Forest--such a tome would be monumental in size--but rather to instill in the reader an understanding of the forest's general dynamics. The book is divided into eight sections; they are:
1) How to use this book
2) Forest field marks
3) Eastern forest communities
4) Disturbance and pioneer plants
5) Adaptation
6) Paterns of spring
7) Nature in summer
