A masterful guide to identifying Britain's native trees during the most challenging season of all. When leaves have fallen and branches stand bare against grey winter skies, even experienced naturalists can struggle to name the trees around them. This essential handbook reveals the subtle characteristics that make winter identification not only possible but deeply rewarding.

Through detailed observation of bark patterns, bud arrangements, tree silhouettes and growth habits, readers learn to recognise species with confidence. The approach combines practical field skills with a genuine appreciation for the stark beauty of dormant trees, transforming winter woodland walks from barren trudges into fascinating detective work. An invaluable resource for anyone seeking to deepen their connection with the British landscape throughout the year.
