Preface: "I have endeavored, in plain language, to depict the leading prominent habits of trees, to give somewhat of the heights, etc., to which they attain, and the soils in which they best succeed. I have also ventured to suggest some of the places and positions in which their use will be most satisfactory" (#05)
