Product Description

Wood Identification & Use is an indispensable guide to the world's most valuable natural resource.

More than 200 species of wood are included in this lavishly illustrated book. Each species is described in detail with color photographs and information on its properties, seasoning requirements, uses and safety considerations.

There are sections on decorative figuring, wood defects and potential health hazards. There are also inspirational examples of finished work, a glossary of technical terms and drawings of living trees to help in identification.

Aimed at small-scale users, whether professional or amateur, the book includes woods used in cabinetmaking, joinery, carpentry, turning, carving and a host of more specialist applications.
