Hidden Natural Histories: Trees

Langbeschreibung
"In 'Trees', noted garden writer Noel Kingsbury turns his pen or pencil to the leafy life-forms that have warmed our hearths, framed our boats for ocean voyaging, and provided us shade on summer afternoons. From the fortitude of the ancient ginkgo tree to artistic depictions of quince fruit in the ruins of Pompeii, Kingsbury explores the culinary, medicinal, cultural, and practical uses of a forest of tree species"
