Cronin's Key Guide to Australian Trees
The book covers Australian trees in very clear detail. Goes through how to recognize and name the different trees by catorgorizing the leaf shape. Making it pretty easy to find the tree's name. It also covers palms and fruit/nut shape of Eucalypt for easy identification of each variety. Each variety takes up half a page with colour drawings, description, habitats etc. At roughly the size of a paper back it's small enough to take out on your next ramble!
