Audubon  tree book for your area or Peterson's Guild to trees for your area are 2 good sources. Also your local Cooperative Extension Service can be a big help.

You could try the Leafsnap app. I tried it out a while ago, it's super easy to use (just take a pic of the plant). Not sure how accurate it is, but it at least gives you a few suggestions. The biggest issue I found was it need data, so if you're out in the woods it won't work until you get back.
