Puts all other modern tree-writers in the shade' John Lewis-Stempel, author of Meadowland  Thomas Pakenham is an indefatigable champion of trees. In The Company of Trees he recounts his personal quest to establish a large arboretum on the family estate, Tullynally in Ireland; his forays to other tree-filled parks and plantations; his often hazardous seed-hunting expeditions; and his efforts to preserve magnificent old trees and historic woodlands.  Whether writing about the terrible storms breaking the backs of hundred-year-old trees or a fire in the peat bog on Tullynally which threatens to spread to the main commercial spruce-woods, his fear of climate change and disease, or the sturdy young saplings giving him hope for the future, his book is never less than enthralling.","brand":"World of Books ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53508676714769,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781474606790.jpg?v=1778151679","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/products\/books-the-company-of-trees-by-thomas-pakenham","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
