Forty Ways to Know a Tree offers forty distinct ways of encountering, exploring and knowing a tree. You might know it by its birth, by its death, by its roots, by its rings, as a lone sentinel or as part of an ancient woodland. Each meeting is illustrated with a particular species, and they combine to create a broader canvas of tree knowledge. Elegant writing turns tree science into storytelling, with beautiful watercolours and photographs scattered throughout.
