Winner of the 1977 Border Regional Library Association Award for his "Woody Plants of the Southwest", Samuel Lamb gives us another definitive study of the trees and shrubs of our 50th state. The enormous number of photographs make this 8 1/2 by 11 volume easy to use. Fascinating and informative!

Much more than a catalog of trees and shrubs, WOODY PLANTS OF THE SOUTHWEST is an encyclopedia-like discussion covering all except the herbaceous vegetation of portions of the southwestern United States and a narrow strip of adjoing Mexico.
