Post oak, bur oak, overcup, chinkapin: Texas grows its oaks in bewildering variety. Wilbur Mattoon's guide sorts them out, working species by species with the botanical names and telling marks that separate a swamp chestnut oak from an American elm. Practical identification for a huge and varied state, from bottomland to dry ridge. Keep it close on any Texas ramble.

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.
