First: to preserve records of a few trees of exceptional size and character, some no longer available. The author has photographic records of the once valuable Chestnut, now all but extinct. … Secondly: The presentation of the tree with the main emphasis on the bark characteristics. In travelling in the forest, where the crown of the tree is not within sight or reach, one must recognize the bark.’ (from Preface)
