“E. Lucy Braun’s classic book,The Woody Plants of Ohio, is the primary reference for definitive information on the identification and distribution of species of this important group of Ohio
plants. Dr. Braun’s careful and detailed data, her workable identification keys, and the exquisiteillustrations of Elizabeth Dalvé combine to make this a very useful publication for both scientific
and lay readers.”
