A dazzling book, full of knowledge and rare wisdom, too' Thomas Pakenham, author of Remarkable Trees of the WorldProfessional arborist and awardwinning nature writer William Bryant Logan deftly relates the delightful history of the reciprocal relationship between humans and oak trees since time immemorial. For centuries these supremely adaptable, generous trees have supported humankind in nearly every facet of life. From the ink of Bachs cantatas to the first boat to reach the New World, the wagon, the barrel, and the sword, oak trees have been a constant presence in our past. Yet weve largely forgotten the oaks role in civilization. With reverence, humor, and compassion, Logan awakens us to the vibrant presence of the oak throughout our history and in todays world.
