Connecticut's Notable Trees
The notable trees of Connecticut have long been a source of wonder and enjoyment to the citizens and visitors who travel the state. Here are the locations and stories of the historic trees that have witnessed the major events in Connecticut's past, and the largest trees of each species. The efforts of many amateur and professional botanists and historians were coordinated in documenting the significant trees. Newly revised and updated, the book includes nearly 50 photographs and extensive tales of the Notable Trees. Besides individual tree locations, there is also a summary of the major tree collections in the state, and "ground rules" for measuring and reporting new finds.
