Mahogany Hardback
by Linda White
Hardback
Description
Mahogany is a detailed identification guide to the woods of several trade timbers known as ‘mahogany’, and aims to differentiate between these and the true mahogany Swietenia.
All three species of Swietenia are CITES listed, and difficult to tell apart from other ‘mahogany’ timbers.
In this book, 18 taxa from the Meliaceae family (the mahogany family), commonly known as mahoganies, are compared and contrasted, with full wood anatomical descriptions and microscopic images, macroscopic wood images, global distribution maps, information on uses and common names.
