It includes details of such matters as spacing, transplanting, pruning, protection and safety and provides valuable information on the identification and treatment of many of the diseases and insect pests that attack trees.
In addition the book covers such varying subjects as botanic gardens and arboreta, a summary of the principal law cases which have been concerned with trees, arboricultural education and the choice of trees for urban areas.
