The Great Tree Story

A thrilling journey of discovery! Levison Wood is our passionate guide as we head through time and across the world in the company of trees. -- Tristan Gooley Levison Wood has done the impossible. To tell the story of trees in a single book is a Herculean task, but one that he has resoundingly achieved. -- Merlin Hanbury-Tenison, author of Our Oaken Bones Levison Wood is a great adventurer and a wonderful storyteller. -- Sir Ranulph Fiennes Britain's best-loved adventurer. * The Times * A thrilling, moving, and convincing journey through the life of trees. -- Will Storr, author of The Status Game This powerful book brims with curiosity, original thought, and cutting-edge research, but amidst the wonder, you can also hear the haunting 'cry' of the natural world. -- Sophy Roberts, The Lost Pianos of Siberia This isn't just a book about trees - it's about relationship. Lev reminds us that for many Indigenous peoples, the forest is family. Kin, not resource. In hearing their voices, we're not only invited to remember - but to recognise that we, too, belong. -- Bruce Parry The tree is the hero in his book. * The Times * A manifesto for rewilding the human spirit. * Eclectica * This is a powerful book . . . The Great Tree Story is an irresistible celebration; exciting, informative, and as climate change accelerates, something we should all know more about'. -- Michael Palin
