Long accepted as the best work on the subject, this is both a comprehensive history of Britain's woodlands and a field guide that presents trees individually and as part of the landscape. Extending from prehistoric times up to the Middle Ages, it also describes the subsequent decline until the present century. "This is the book that felled the romantic clich‚ of sylvan England...There are heroes in this book as much as in any history, but they are ancient oaks and beeches and hornbeams..."—Simon Schama. "...a classic..."—Country Life. 6 1/4 X 9 1/4. 61 B&W Illustrations

Trees and Woodland in the British Landscape The Complete History of Britain's Trees
1.5 stars
Well, I've waited months for this book to be available from my local library. It is always always always on reservation! Finally it was my turn and .................... oh my! Major disappointment!
This book has to be one of the driest, uninteresting, monotonous books on trees I have ever had the displeasure to peruse! I'm gutted too as I was really looking forward to it.
It reminded me of sitting through a lecture with the worst lecturer in history in a stuffy tweed jacket with Mr Magoo spectacles and a voice like a drone!
I skipped vast swathes of the material in the hope that a modicum of humanity might be injected somewhere but no.
Eugh, back to the library for you kidder, lets hope someone else manages to squeeze a bit of life out of you!
