Hi Ushadi, Thanks so much for your response.
I came across the Sal tree for the first time recently in Kanha and would like to know more about it. I don't have access to any of these books right now as I am traveling. It would help if there is some information ready, otherwise, I will wait till I get back home :) Regards, Sangita On Sat, Sep 1, 2012 at 7:44 PM, ushadi Micromini <[email protected]>wrote: > If you have a library near by... > Bombay historical society have several books on trees of India... > one such is *The book of Indian Trees* by *Mr KC Sahni* ...
