From the Inside Flap

"The purpose of this book is to provide, in the form of a field guide or manual, a means of identifying the shrubs that can be found in Ontario growing outside cultivation. The term shrub has been variously defined. As interpreted in this book it includes perennial plants with usually more than one low-branching woody stem, also woody vines and a number of low or trailing perennials which are sometimes called subshrubs. Since certain trees occasionally develop shrubby growth with several stems from the ground, some of these have been included." - from Introduction
