Summary:
Explores the important roles trees play in our ecosystem; takes a close look at the parts of trees (from roots to stumps to leaves), and the cultural impact of trees from classification systems (like family trees or data trees) to long-standing myths (like the Tree of Life). Also addresses the deforestation crisis.
Part botany, part history, part cultural anthropology--Trees goes beyond the basics to tell readers everything they might want to know about this particular branch of the plant kingdom. Trees explores the important roles trees play in our ecosystem, takes an up-close-and-personal look at the parts of trees (from roots to stumps to leaves), and unpacks the cultural impact of trees from classification systems (like family trees or data trees) to long-standing myths (like the Tree of Life). Looking forward, Trees also addresses the deforestation crisis. Heavily illustrated in the same style as Bees: A Honeyed History, Trees: A Rooted History serves as a beautifully packaged celebration of trees of all kinds.
