You can walk past a maple every day and never truly meet it. J. Horace McFarland introduces the common trees as if presenting friends, telling the story of maples, the growth of the oak, and the ways of pines, willows, apples, and elms. Warm, photograph-rich, and easy to love. A gentle invitation to know the trees along your own street.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
