Tree Rings. Basics And Applications Of Dendrochronology
E-Book Overview
`Dr. Schweingruber's book is so full of wonderful, logical and typographically clear graphics, tables and illustrations that the relatively brief text is perceived as a mere commentary or perhaps an extended caption. The handsome halftone figures draw together a remarkable amount of information from scattered sources. This is less a book than a pictorial encyclopedia of what should be known about tree rings.'
