Out of the Woods by Will Cohu
Out of the Woods is an affectionate, convivial introduction to Britain's trees, in which Will Cohu takes you on a revelatory ramble through country and city - from woodlands of majestic oak and ash, via alder-clad lay-bys, to mean streets lined with cherries.
Cohu's intimate writing style will inspire you to leave your armchair on a voyage of discovery into an oft ignored aspect of landscape* Good Book Guide *
Cohu's book is unlike any other tree book I have come across... there is no jargon at all. Instead he gives memorable descriptions... I never knew walking with trees could be so entertaining. * The Guardian *
Cohu intertwines history, poetry, folklore and hardcore botany with the deftness of a master coppicer...A book to relish while burning hand-hewn logs in an open fire. * Sunday Times *
