The Definitive No-nonsense Tree Reference,
This book was written for professional tree managers but in laymen’s terms. Gilman gives each tree one page, laying out the pros and cons of each tree in terms of suggested uses and future maintenance. It’s easy to evaluate trees and learn about new ones.
Gilman is well respected among arborists and his “how-to” sections are a mini college-level course in arboriculture. There are also many useful lists.
As a retail nursery owner I see many tree books from glossy coffee-table volumes to pocket handbooks. This is the book I refer to most often. It’s expensive but well worth it for anyone serious about spending money on trees.

well worth the price,
this is the most informative tree book i have found. not a picture coffee table book– it has no color pictures, but excellent details on choosing plants and cultural needs.
