Julie, my favorite for wood is R. Bruce Hoadley's Identifying wood:
Accurate results with simple tools. The Taunton Press, 1990. Splendid
color plates, lots of detail, and good tips on microscope use. However,
he does not address charcoal. You will probably want to create a set of
slides of known wood species for comparison purposes.
have fun! Martha
