Monumental Arkansas books

Someone in your life likely needs at least one of these towering works of scholarship published this year: “Arkansas Made: Volume 1 and 2” ($39.95 each, University of Arkansas Press) are exhaustive surveys of Arkansas arts and crafts, the culmination of years of research by the Historic Arkansas Museum team. Anyone interested in learning about Arkansas’s material culture will find the books’ essays enlightening, but Rett Peek’s gorgeous photography and the smart layout make these work just as well as coffee table books. “Trees, Shrubs, and Woody Vines” ($29.95, Ozark Society Foundation), by Johnnie Gentry, Jennifer Ogle and Theo Witsell, is similarly comprehensive and well designed. The hefty field guide has more than 1,500 pictures and all sorts of other visual aids to go with detailed descriptions of every tree you’ll find in Arkansas.
