Looking for a general Wood reference book/source


EverStudious

Recommended Posts

Ok the topic might be a tad confusing. As a new woodworker I was wondering if there is a reputable resource either online or printed that goes through the different species of wood and goes into some detail regarding the wood. Such as origin, hard or soft wood, common uses, etc. Things of that nature that would allow me to get a good basic grounding for the type of wood that I should look for during the planning stages of a project. 

 

Any help is much appreciated.
