How to Read a Tree by Tristan Gooley

Trees tell a story, but only to those who know how to read it. They hold secrets about the land, the water, the people, the animals, the weather, time--and their own lives, the good and bad. 

In How to Read a Tree, Gooley uncovers the clues hiding in plain sight: in a tree's branches and leaves; its bark, buds, and flowers; even its stump. Leaves with a pale, central streak mean that water is nearby. Young, low-growing branches show that a tree is struggling. And reddish or purple bark signals new growth. Like snowflakes, no two trees are exactly the same. Every difference reveals the epic story this tree has lived--if we stop to look closely.

The Natural Navigator, The Lost Art of Interpreting Nature's Signals, and How to Read Water are all New York Times bestselling books by Tristan Gooley. His interest in natural navigation originates from his own personal experience. He founded the Natural Navigator school and was a Fellow of the Royal Institute of Navigation and the Royal Geographical Society. Naturalnavigator.com is where you can learn more about him and his school.
