I have recently purchased a great book for an employee. However, all the trees are listed alphabetically by their Latin names, which does him no good. Does anyone know of a good source that lists trees first by the common names then followed by the Latin names.?

Has the common name as well as the scientific name. The back has trees listed in alphabetically order in two seperate list. One by common name and the other by scientific name. The back cover says it cost $19.00. I don't remember where I purchased it from but I believe Sherrill has it. Hope this helps.

Plan b could be to start refering to all trees by their scientific names and pretend that everyone does that. Then he won't be able to work with anyone but you, a biologist or JPS.:p
