I purchased this to study while working as a forest guide. I believe it will be very helpful.
I think this is the most user-friendly and informative book among all the books about trees. I learned a lot of information about trees that can be seen around me, focusing mainly on those native to Korea.
I like that there are a lot of photos. It's fun getting to know each tree one by one. The price is a bit high though......^^
You focused on scientific names, legends, natural monuments, edibility, efficacy, and seed propagation methods. I am learning a lot.
I am someone who loves trees very much. Consequently, I have many questions about them. Although I have read other books, I bought this one because I wanted to understand the author's perspective on trees, as he is currently the Director of the Korea National Arboretum. I was curious to see how he views them. While 100 trees might seem like a lot, after actually reading it, I felt that the number of trees was insufficient. Do you have any plans to add another 100 trees in a second volume? Or do
Lee Yu-mi: One hundred branches of our tree
“One Hundred Korean Trees” is a friendly tree encyclopedia for those looking into trees for the first time. This is a revised and expanded edition of *One Hundred Korean Trees We Really Need to Know*, in which Lee Yu-mi, Director of the Korea National Arboretum, discusses trees and forests. The book explores our forests through meticulous ecological data, diverse photographs, and interesting stories. Recognized as the nation's premier guide to trees for 20 years, this book selects 100 species of trees native to Korea and covers not only the origins of their names, ecology, uses, and distribution, but also the national sentiment embodied in the trees and the stories intertwined with them. Praised for being infused with broad and solid knowledge and deep love for trees, it won the Korea Science and Technology Book Award and was selected as an Excellent Environmental Book by the Ministry of Environment. This revised edition incorporates newly discovered facts and corrects academic classifications and scientific names that have changed from the previous version. It also introduces natural monuments that have withered away and been delisted or newly registered over the past 20 years, and includes stories about tree ecology that has changed due to environmental shifts, as well as plants whose natural habitats have shrunk or which have been newly discovered. This book is a revised and expanded edition of *One Hundred Korean Trees We Really Need to Know* (Hyunamsa), published in 2005.
