Default looking for a good Gum ID book

looking for a book to help me id these dang Eucs here in the US. Web searching isn't always helpful. Seeing as this is a Aussie based forum, thought someone here could help.

Thanks!

Ian Brooker and David Kleinig have produced a few books on Eucs, I use one, very good.

Volume 1, 2 and 3 in this link

Field guide to eucalypts

Plus there's this one of theirs and covers popular subspecies Australia wide

Eucalyptus: an illustrated guide to identification. Brooker, Ian and David Kleinig.

Also Dean Nicolle's book

For books www.abebooks.com is always a good start. Biggest book market on the planet.

First search brought a few copies up.

Second search for related books.

Hope that helps.
