Sobre este artículo
(Cape Town: C Struik, 1984) 086977221X. 210 x 148 mm; laminated pictorial wrappers; pp. 272, incl. index; lavishly illustrated with full-colour photographs, maps and explanatory drawings. Very good condition. "In 1973-74 the two-volume work Trees of the Kruger National Park, an authoritative botanical study, was published. After the enormous interest shown in this work, now out of print, the author, Piet van Wyk, Head of the Department of Research and Information of the National Parks Board, was urged to produce a handbook for visitors to take along with them on their trips to the Kruger Park. This handy format will become an indispensable reference for every visitor interested in trees as each species was photographed by him in full colour in its natural habitat and each entry contains a wealth of information on the tree's fruits, bark, flowers and leaves, aspects of its growth rate, weight, uses of the wood, medicinal value and much much more. An additional feature in Field Guide to the Trees of the Kruger National Park is the inclusion of notes on a further 175 species which, although not growing to tree proportions in the park, do so elsewhere and are classified as trees in the National Tree List." .
