Illustrated in color throughout. 175 pages. 11.5 x 8.5 inches. Covers more than 70 different species of Asian, Australian and New Zealand timbers, both hardwoods and softwoods. Beautiful color plates showing the grain(s) of each specie, along with a general description, notes on its distribution and supply, technical properties, and uses.
