Around the World in 80 Trees

BasicBinding: Paperback

Author: Drori, Jonathan

Publisher: Laurence King

Date Published: 08-2020

ISBN: 1786276062 | EAN: 9781786276063

BasicBinding: Paperback

Features: Price on Product, Illustrated, Bibliography, Index | Pages: 240

Annotation: "Trees are one of humanitys most constant and most varied companions. From Indias sacred banyan tree to the fragrant cedar of Lebanon, they offer us sanctuary and inspiration not to mention the raw materials for everything from aspirin to maple syrup. This book uses plant science to illuminate how trees play a role in every part of human life, from the romantic to the regrettable. Stops on the trip include the lime trees of Berlins Unter den Linden boulevard, which intoxicate amorous Germans and hungry bees alike, the swankiest streets in nineteenth-century London, which were paved with Australian eucalyptus wood, and the redwood forests of California, where the secret to the trees soaring heights can be found in the properties of the tiniest drops of water. Each of these strange and true tales populated by self-mummifying monks, tree-climbing goats and ever-so-slightly radioactive nuts is illustrated by Lucille Clerc, taking the reader on a journey that is as informative as it is beautiful."--Provided by publisher.

Stewart Udall, ... William O. Douglas, ... Cesar Chavez, ... and other crusaders are profiled. ... [Carson's book Silent Spring] launched an ecological revolution that inspired such landmark legislation as the Wilderness Act (1964), the Clean Air Acts (1963 and 1970), and the Endangered Species Acts (1966, 1969, and 1973). ... Brinkley extrapolates on such epic events as the Donora (Pennsylvania) smog incident, JFK's Limited Nuclear Test Ban Treaty, Great Lakes preservation, the Santa Barbara oil spill, and the first Earth Day. With the United States grappling with climate change and resource exhaustion, Douglas Brinkley's [book] reminds us that a new generation of twenty-first-century environmentalists can save the planet from ruin"--Publisher marketing.
