Meetings with Remarkable Trees
by Thomas Pakenham

Award-winning historian and renowned authority on trees, Thomas Pakenham has created a beguiling collection of sixty unique and champion specimens in Meetings With Remarkable Trees. In this lavisly illustrated volume you will meet the great yew at Selbourne, believed to be centuries older than the Christian church built beside it in the 1300s, an elegant lime with a rococo house in its branches, and a Himalayan magnolia, a species which can take thirty years to produce its bowl-sized blooms. Grouped by their "characters" in six separate sections, these extraordinary life stories are completemented by full-color photographs, detailed drawings, and a complete gazeteer.

Paperback 192 pages - 9 1/2" x 11 3/4" - (4/99)
