{"product_id":"black-poplar-book-fiona-cooper-9781905119059","title":"The Black Poplar","description":"A cultural and ecological biography of the black poplar in  Britain. Fiona cooper explores the tree's historic place in the  landscape, and how it has played a role in folklore and in the work of poets such as William Cowper. She  explains how the tree has been used through the centuries as  timber and in medicine, and then addresses the question of its  conservation. She investigates the reasons for the black poplar's  decline, and focuses in particular on the important populations  in the Vale of Aylesbury and in Manchester, which is in danger of  completely losing trees which for a century have been a  distinctive feature of the urban landscape. The key to the  species' survival in Britain may in fact lie in our own  understanding of its genetic make-up.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ LIKE_NEW \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49532371239185,"sku":"GOR013590894","price":63.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50711090266385,"sku":"GOR002800170","price":36.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1905119054.jpg?v=1751124215","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/en-au\/products\/black-poplar-book-fiona-cooper-9781905119059","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
