Book Review Around the World in 80 Trees

Jonathan Drori

Laurence King Publishing May 2018

From the trees of Britain, to India’s sacred banyan tree, trees offer us sanctuary and inspiration – not to mention the raw materials for everything from aspirin to maple syrup.

This book is a must read. It profiles eighty trees, each with its own beautifully illustrated entry, details some amazing facts, and describes the astonishing way a tree manages its own wellbeing and enlists the assistance of others. Who knew trees were so clever! This is a book that will appeal to everyone, gardeners and non-gardeners alike
